He arrived in Rio de Janeiro, where he worked at the two main clubs at the time, Botafogo and Fluminense. After this, Megdyessy also became the first foreign coach in the history of Atlético Mineiro. At Palestra Itália, he was to beat his former club Fenencváros in the team's trip to Brazil.

His last job was coaching Arthur Friedenreich São Paulo FC, where he stayed for just 13 matches. He ended up moving to Argentina, after gaining a reputation in Brazilian sports media as a coach who demanded too much from his players in training. There Medgyessy trained San Lorenzo, Racing and River Plate.
