Salles started his career at Flamengo in 2000, and became the assistant manager of the first team in 2005, under Joel Santana. In 2009, he was also Andrade's assistant as the club lifted the Série A trophy.[1]

Salles subsequently followed Andrade to Brasiliense in 2010, and was also Santana's second at Cruzeiro and Bahia. He started his managerial career in March 2013, after being appointed manager of Rio Branco-ES.[2]

Salles subsequently managed Nova Iguaçu (three stints),[3][4][5] Bonsucesso (three stints),[6] Audax Rio,[7] Imperatriz,[8] Portuguesa-RJ,[9] Sampaio Corrêa-RJ[10] and Volta Redonda.[11] In 2019, he returned to Fla, again as an assistant.

On 29 May 2019, after Abel Braga's resignation, Salles was named interim manager until the arrival of Jorge Jesus in July.[12]

Salles is the son of Marco Antônio, a Brazilian former international footballer who played two FIFA World Cups, lifting the 1970 edition.[1]
