Only two of the fourteen former footballers who ran in the elections in Brazil were elected.

Out of fourteen former Brazilian professional football players who ran in Sunday's legislative elections in Brazil, only two successfully secured seats. The election results, reported from Rio de Janeiro on October 5, saw the victory of goalkeeper Danrlei, who was elected as a federal deputy, and former forward Bobô, who secured a position as a regional deputy for the state of Bahía.

The outcome highlights the limited electoral success of sports figures transitioning into Brazilian politics during this legislative cycle, with the vast majority of the fourteen candidate athletes failing to win their respective races.
