The current Ancelotti contract in the Spanish capital runs until the end of the 2025/26 season, but speculation about its future explode.
The president of the club, Florentino Perez, is preparing for crucial discussions with the Italian coach to determine the continuation of the events, but no decision was taken immediately.
Ancelotti expressed his wish to focus on the current season, the La Liga title race and the King Cup final being still at stake, with decisive confrontations against Barcelona. Xabi Alonso is presented as the favorite for a possible departure from Ancelotti, the former midfielder being also under contract until 2026 in Bayer Leverkusen.
Everything remains to be done
Ancelotti's dismissal rumors after the King Cup final against Barcelona on April 26 seem false. However, Perez plans to appoint an acting coach for the FIFA club World Cup in June.
Ancelotti in the shadows concerning his future
According to exclusive information from David Ornstein from The Athletic, Ancelotti will leave his post, but not before the 2024/25 season kicks off. The latest news from Marca indicate that Perez and Ancelotti are both serene regarding the situation, which is not completely resolved.
Real warned by Sacchi
Brazil is the main Ancelotti option in the event of departure, Alonso being ready to wait until a decision is made. The case involved great figures from European football and his old friend, and former AC Milan coach, the emblematic Arrigo Sacchi, warned Real Madrid against a hasty decision.
“” What makes me sad, even if it is part of football, is that everyone criticizes Carletto for the elimination of the Champions League and the blame “He said in an interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport.
“Do these people know who is ancelotti?” Do they know what he won? I consider him a real football master, not only for his trophies, but also for his human qualities. Real Madrid should think about it two or three times before separating from someone like Carletto. »»
