Carlo Ancelotti will leave Real Madrid at the end of the Spanish championship. The timing of the announcement of his enthronement at the head of the Seleção was able to surprise, but that does not change the story. From May 26, “Carletto” will be on the other side of the Atlantic and will prepare the future deadlines of Brazil against Ecuador and Paraguay. Present in front of the media on the eve of the Liga match between Real Madrid and Mallorca, the Italian nevertheless assured that he wanted to close his Madrid chapter in the best possible way, even if it will probably be without title.
“”Madrid will publish the press release when he wants it»»
“From the 26th, I will be the coach of Brazil and it is a very important challenge, but I want to finish this final straight line of this fantastic adventure here. I know you are interested in what I think and what I want to do. But I have to think about the days I have to live here. Thanks to the respect I have for this club and these supporters, I focus on the last straight line of this spectacular adventure. »» A courteous response which obviously did not be enough for journalists present.
Very quickly, the questions switched to the timing chosen by the CBF to announce its new coach and the absence of a press release from Real Madrid. But as usual, Ancelotti was able to find the parade. “Because the CBF has published this declaration and since the 26th, I have been the coach of Brazil. (…) Everyone acted as he wishes. (…) Madrid will publish the press release when he wants, there is no problem and he will do it when he deems it appropriate. When the club communicates with me, it's completely personal ”he said. Relaunched on his end of the course in Madrid, did Ancelotti felt that Casa Blanca no longer wanted him to say yes quickly in Brazil?
Ancelotti heals his farewell to Real Madrid
The Mister may be explained in more detail during his presentation at the headquarters of the CBF, but in the meantime, he has taken care to treat his farewell with Real. “I never thought Madrid didn't want me. Madrid loves me. Even if I go to Brazil on the 25th, Madrid still loves me. Madrid has always loved me. They have always shown me affection. I couldn't be a Madrid coach all my life. It's over because of many things. Maybe the club needs a new impetus. I don't make a drama. Many thanks to this club. And we will continue. I will be Madrid all my life. It is a period that ends. It's spectacular. I would never have thought of being able to train Madrid for six years and it happened ”he said before concluding.
“I have always kept in mind that one day it would end. I had a good time and I think it is for everyone, but there is a time when it stops. Football is like life, there is a start and an end. I had a good time and May 26 is another challenge. I have never had a problem with the club and I will never have one. We have won a lot and it will remain a memory for life. (…) I can't regret anything and I want to spend these last days in a fantastic way. I did my best and the titles speak for themselves. Yes, I am very happy, if I did not have the press conference today, it would be fantastic, but there are things that I cannot explain now because I am in Madrid and that I want to respect this jersey. I wanted to win the championship. »» Carlo Ancelotti will not succeed in his release, but no one will take away the extraordinary heritage he leaves behind in Spain (3 C1, 2 ligas, 2 King's Cups, 2 Spanish Super Cups, 3 European Super Cups, 3 Intercontinental Cups).
