Shenhua were on the hunt for a new boss after Jean Tigana left the post in April, with the Frenchman paying the price for a poor start to the Chinese Super League season.
On Wednesday morning, the Oriental Sports Daily reported Batista will replace Tigana, and he has now been officially confirmed as their new boss.
Batista will have Nicolas Anelka at his disposal, the striker having joined Shenhua from Chelsea in the January transfer window.
Shenhua are currently ninth in the Chinese Super League table after a rare win against Guizhou Renhe on Sunday.
