By agreeing to rejoin Real Madrid, Ancelotti has officially said goodbye to Everton and the Premier League after only 18 months of working, although his contract with the Goodison Park team is still valid until 2024. The compensation for breaking this contract will be paid by Real Madrid, and is estimated to not be too harsh.
Everton's performance under Ancelotti has not been as good as expected. In the second half of the 2019-2020 season, the team only ranked 12th when Ancelotti "replaced" Marco Silva. Last season, the team ranked 10th, failing to qualify for the European Cup.
Carlo Ancelotti has become part of Real Madrid's history
Just a few days after La Liga ended, Zinedine Zidane immediately announced his departure and the question of who would take over the Real Madrid head coach position became a hot topic. A series of strong candidates were named such as Max Allegri, Antonio Conte, Mauricio Pochettino, Raul Gonzalez, Xaibi Alonso... But in the end, Real Madrid's leadership and president Florentino Perez decided to choose Ancelotti.

The Italian coach is no stranger to Real Madrid fans as well as most of the players still wearing the Royal team's shirt.
Carlo Ancelotti helped "Los Blancos" break their 12-year drought of consecutive empty titles in European Cups by winning the Champions League in the 2013-2014 season. By coming from behind to defeat their neighboring rival Atletico Madrid 4-1 in the final, Real Madrid completed the "Decima" (10th championship) in the Champions League, opening a new golden age in the team's history.

Also in this season, Real Madrid won the King's Cup as well as the European Super Cup and Club World Cup titles in the second half of 2014. The following season 2014-2015, "Los Blancos" did not bring home any titles and that was the reason why this experienced strategist had to sadly leave.
The dismissal of him at that time by President Florentino Perez was strongly opposed by star players such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Sergio Ramos and Karim Benzema. Real Madrid's winning rate in these two seasons was up to 75%, not to mention Ancelotti's ability to control a team with many stars and personalities like Real Madrid and has a good relationship with the players.
Ancelotti leaves Everton
Ancelotti then led Bayern Munich, Napoli and then accepted a job at Everton from December 2019.
Accepting the offer to return to lead Real Madrid, Ancelotti immediately has the opportunity to work with top football once again with a not-so-simple task; must help this team regain its leading position in both La Liga and the European arena.
