Coach Ancelotti leads Brazil team, Xabi Alonso goes to Real Madrid

Brazil persistently invites coach Ancelotti to win the 6th World Cup

According to Spanish newspaper Marca and journalist Fabrizio Romano, transfer news expert, representative of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), Diego Fernandes has arrived in Seville (where the recent Copa del Rey final between Real Madrid and Barcelona took place). He met privately with coach Ancelotti to discuss the agreement to lead the Selecao. They continued to meet in the last few hours to finalize all agreements.

In particular, coach Ancelotti has agreed to lead the Brazilian team with a contract lasting until the 2030 World Cup. He also became the highest paid coach in the world , according to Fabrizio Romano.

Ancelotti's time in charge of the Brazilian national team will start at the beginning of June, not after the FIFA Club World Cup as recently predicted. This also means that Real Madrid will let Ancelotti work for the rest of the La Liga season with 5 decisive matches for the championship or not, before saying goodbye to him with honor.

According to Spanish newspapers, after the final match in La Liga ends on May 25, coach Ancelotti will officially say goodbye to Real Madrid even though he still has a contract until June 2026. The club's president, Mr. Florentino Perez, has decided to pay the entire remaining salary in the contract to coach Ancelotti and also offered him an offer to be the club's ambassador for life.

This is considered an honorable agreement, because coach Ancelotti is the most successful coach in Real Madrid's history, including 3 Champions League titles, 2 La Liga titles and most other prestigious championship titles at the club level.

However, Real Madrid may have to appoint an interim coach for the FIFA Club World Cup, most likely a youth coach. In the meantime, they will wait for coach Xabi Alonso from Bayer Leverkusen to replace him.

Real Madrid have been in contact with Xabi Alonso for months. The coach's contract with Bayer Leverkusen does not have a termination clause. However, many sources have confirmed that the German club will not stand in Xabi Alonso's way if he agrees to lead Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, FC Barcelona is also racing to retain coach Hansi Flick, who in his first season with a short-term contract, has helped the Catalan team win two championships including the Spanish Super Cup and the King's Cup.

Coach Hansi Flick plans to extend his contract with Barcelona for only one more year, as he only likes short-term contracts and renewals every year.

Barcelona are set to meet Inter Milan in the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals at 2am on May 1. Along with the Champions League, they are also leading La Liga, dreaming of a historic quadruple in the 2024-2025 season under coach Hansi Flick.
