Only a few names come to mind when talking about the best coaches in the history of football. Sir Alex Ferguson, Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho, and Carlo Ancelotti. The Italian is the most successful manager in the history of the Champions League, with four titles to his name after recently lifting the coveted trophy for the Los Blancos in 2022.
He won the famous La Decima for Real Madrid in the 2013/14 season against local rivals Atletico Madrid. It was the club’s tenth time winning the Champions League. Ancelotti has also led AC Milan to two Champions League titles in 2003 and 2007.
Regarded as one of the most decorated managers in football history, Carlo Ancelotti has won league titles in England, Italy, Spain, Germany, and France, putting his total at 25. The legendary coach will unsurprisingly leave the Spanish capital next summer in favor of a move to Brazil as the country’s new head coach.
Carlo Ancelotti Appointed as the New Head Coach of the Brazilian National Team
Carlo Ancelotti has won everything there is to be won at club level. The Italian has succeeded at some of the best European clubs, including Chelsea, Milan, Bayern Munich, PSG, and Real Madrid.
After much speculation about his future, Ancelotti will now head to South America in June 2024 to take over as the new head coach of the Brazilian National Team, as called by Fabrizio Romano.
The former Chelsea manager has been very respectful toward Real Madrid. He has expressed his wish to see out his contract with the Los Blancos, which expires next summer. He also seems like the perfect manager to bring the glory days back to Brazil after a series of World Cup disappointments.
What has he not won as a club manager? Absolutely nothing! With four Champions League across two clubs, the Italian will now relish the chance to add a World Cup to his trophy cabinet, making him arguably the best manager in football’s history.
When is Carlo Ancelotti to Coach the Brazilian Nation Team?
Ancelotti will see out his contract at Real Madrid, which runs until June 2024. This will give Real Madrid enough time to line up a replacement for the Italian. It could be another successful season for the Spanish giants, having added Jude Bellingham, and potentially Kylian Mbape, to their ranks for the 23/24 season.
Let’s face the fact – Brazilian football badly needs someone of Ancelotti’s combination of calmness and ruthlessness. Moreover, the coach is loved by Real Madrid’s Brazilians, such as Vini Jr., Rodrygo, and Eder Militao. Even Neymar Jr. once backed the Italian for the national team job.
Will Ancelotti be as successful with Brazil as with club football? Let us know in the comments section below.
