I can only think of one, Franz Beckenbauer. He was captain of West Germany when they won it in 1974, and manager of the same nation in 1990.

Brazil's Mario Jorge Lobo Zagallo became the first man to win a World Cup as a player 1958

( Brazil 5- Sweden 2 ) jersey #7, and 4 years later in 1962(Brazil 3, Czechoslovakia 1 )

jersey# 21.And a manager 1970 (Brazil 4, Italy 1).

He was the first footballer to win the World Cup as a player (1958, 1962),

as a coach (1970), and as assistant coach (World Cup 1994), Brazil 3-Italy 2.

Germany's Franz Anton Beckenbauer 1974 (Germany 2, Holland 1) jersey#5,he is the only man to have

won the title as team captain as well as manager.And 1990 (Germany 1, Argentina 0 ) manager.
