On only five occasions, the tournament was won by foreign managers—Croatian Mirko Jozić led Chilean side Colo-Colo to victory in 1992, Uruguayan Jorge Fossati led LDU Quito to win in 2009, his compatriot Luis Cubilla won the tournament with Paraguayan club Olimpia in 1991 and 2003 and Portuguese Jorge Jesus led Flamengo to the trophy in 2020 .

Olimpia, Colo-Colo, and LDU Quito are the only winning sides that has never won the trophy with a national manager.

Besides him, Luis Cubilla, Telê Santana and Alfio Basile are the only managers to have won the competition twice.

Telê Santana won back-to-back titles with São Paulo in 1993 and 1994.
Luiz Felipe Scolari won the Cup with Grêmio in 1996.
