Italian mastermind Carlo Ancelotti has been contacted by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) to succeed former coach Tite, who resigned following the nation’s heartbreaking defeat at the hands of Croatia in the quarter-finals.
The report by Corriere dello Sport (via TuttoNapoli) also specifies that Don Carlo wishes to commit to his Real Madrid contract before evaluating any potential offers. He has a contract valid until the summer of 2024 with Los Blancos and move to Brazil will only be possible after his stint is over. Contrasting reports indicate that this might be his last season at Real.

The decorated manager, who is regarded as one of the greatest tacticians of all time, has won everything in club football. He is the most successful manager in the history of the UEFA Champions League, with four titles – twice with Milan and Real Madrid each. Ancelotti has also won league titles in each of the top-five European leagues, becoming the first-ever manager to do so.

However, the FIFA World Cup is still missing from the 63-year-old record books. And Ancelotti might have the chance to conquer that too, come the 2026 World Cup with the Selecao, who are record holders of the coveted golden trophy. Just that both parties will have to garner patience until 2024 to start negotiations.
