According to Marca , coach Carlo Ancelotti arrived in London yesterday (April 29) to prepare to sign an agreement to lead the Brazilian team with the CBF.

However, the signing did not take place and although the negotiators were still hoping that the Real Madrid coach's signature would be completed in Madrid today, Mr Ancelotti decided not to accept the offer.

In fact, the Italian tactician personally contacted CBF President Ednaldo Rodrigues to thank the federation for their interest. At the same time, there was information that he was considering an extremely attractive financial offer from Saudi Arabia.

Everything seemed to be done and only a signature was missing, as Marca reported yesterday. But in the end, this signing will not happen.

Initially, coach Ancelotti informed representatives working for the CBF that he would not be able to start work in June as desired by the Brazilian Football Confederation. And the time frame could be in August.

This came as a great surprise to Brazilian officials, as all details had been discussed and agreed upon beforehand.

In Brazil, it is even believed that Ancelotti has received approval from Real Madrid to leave in June.

But now, it is not impossible that the Italian coach will continue to lead Real Madrid, even at the FIFA Club World Cup.

Coach Ancelotti may have had difficulty negotiating with Real Madrid to leave in June. However, behind this decision there seems to be a very attractive offer from Saudi Arabia.

Marca reports that there is an offer worth around 50 million euros net per season for the 65-year-old coach. This seems to be a figure that is almost impossible to refuse.

The contract between the CBF and the Real Madrid coach was even finalized, but everything would eventually fall apart. It should be added that this is not the first time Ancelotti has changed his mind regarding Brazil.

Last season, he also considered a similar offer from Selecao but ultimately chose to continue with Real Madrid.
