Real Madrid could soon say goodbye to the coach present on his bench for four years now, Carlo Ancelotti. Under contract until 2026, the Italian could fly away this summer towards new horizons.
Coveted by Brazil for several years, the current Madrid coach could ultimately say yes earlier than expected. While the Seleçao conceded a heavy defeat against the Argentinian rival (4-1) last Tuesday, the CBF would think of dismissing the Dorival Junior coach and would have already contacted Carlo Ancelotti, as indicated Globo ESPORTE.
The Italian would not be insensitive to the interest that Ednaldo Rodrigues, the president of the Brazilian football federation. Coach since 1992, the Real Madrid coach has never been coach. It would then be a new challenge for him as the 2026 World Cup approaches.
Who to replace Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid?
Real Madrid should not oppose a premature departure from Carlo Ancelotti. The club could also push the former PSG coach to take the door after the season if the club does not win titles.
Faced with this possibility, Casa Blanca leaders would have already started research. One name comes out more and more: that of Xabi Alonso. Passed to Real Madrid as a player and as a coach of the U20 Madrid, the Basque knows the house well, which makes him one of the best potential successors in Carlo Ancelotti. However, Xabi Alonso is still under contract until 2026 with Bayer Leverkusen. It remains to be seen whether the German club would be ready to let go of his coach.
