Coach Ancelotti accepts to lead Brazil team, working in May

Ancelotti officially becomes head coach of Brazil national team

Carlo Ancelotti's future has been decided early after Real Madrid fell into a state of empty-handedness this season. According to reputable sources, the Los Blancos board of directors have reached an agreement to appoint Xabi Alonso as the new coach right after the 2024/25 season ends. The young Spanish strategist will take over Real Madrid and debut at the 2025 Club World Cup in June.

On the other hand, coach Carlo Ancelotti also quickly found a new job. According to reputable source The Athletic, Carletto has agreed to lead the Brazilian team from May 26, right after the end of the season with Real Madrid.

In fact, Carlo Ancelotti has been rumored to be with the Selecao for a long time, but some information said that this deal fell through due to a conflict over time. The Italian coach wanted to rest, while the Brazilian side wanted him to lead the team right from the 2026 World Cup qualifying round in June. In addition, the agreement between the two sides was also hindered because Real Madrid wanted compensation for the remaining 1 year of Ancelotti's contract. Everything was approved after Los Blancos ran out of patience with Carletto.

On the homepage, the Brazilian Football Confederation officially confirmed this information. They emphasized: "The greatest national team in football history will now be led by the most successful coach in the world . Carlo Ancelotti will lead the Selecao until the end of the 2026 World Cup and will debut in the next two matches in the qualifying round next month, against Ecuador and Paraguay."

Brazilian Football Confederation President Ednaldo Rodrigues said: “Ask Carlo Ancelotti to coach Brazil is more than a strategic move. It is a statement to the world that we are determined to regain our top position. He is one of the greatest coaches in history and together we will write new glorious chapters for Brazilian football.”

Thus, Ancelotti becomes the 5th head coach of Brazil in the past 2 years. He is the first foreign coach to lead Selecao after exactly 100 years.
