Carlo Ancelotti in Talks to Manage Brazil to World Cup Glory
Brazil is seeking a new realtor to lead their national team to World Cup glory. Carlo Ancelotti, the experienced Italian coach, is reportedly in talks to take the reins. The five-time Champions League winner could replace Dorival Junior, who has struggled to guide Brazil to the World Cup semi-finals since 2014.
Ancelotti's potential appointment comes as Real Madrid's season has faltered. Despite winning two La Liga and Champions League titles under him, Madrid are currently four points behind Barcelona in the league. Their Copa del Rey final loss to Barcelona and Champions League elimination by Arsenal have added to the pressure on Ancelotti. Meanwhile, former Real Madrid player and current Bayer Leverkusen boss Xabi Alonso is being considered as a potential successor.
Diego Fernandes, a Brazilian businessman, has been tasked with securing Ancelotti's signature. Brazil has struggled in qualifying for the 2026 World Cup, and fans hope that Ancelotti's proven success in high-pressure cup competitions can turn their fortunes around.
Carlo Ancelotti is expected to leave Real Madrid to become the manager of the Brazil national team. His appointment could signal a new era for the Seleção, as they aim to return to the World Cup semi-finals and beyond. The Brazilian Football Confederation is eager to secure his services, with Diego Fernandes leading the negotiations.
