Real announced on its website on the 29th (Korea Standard Time) that “Real has agreed to extend his contract with Ancelotti until June 30, 2026. During his tenure as Real coach, he won 10 titles including two Champions League titles, two Club World Cups, two European Super Cups, one League title, two Copa del Rey titles, and one Spanish Super Cup.”
Ancelotti, who had enjoyed a splendid career as a soccer player, chose to become a leader after retirement. After retirement, he served as head coach at the invitation of then Italian national team coach Arrigo Psaki. Afterwards, he took charge of AC Regiana, which was then a member of Serie B, and promoted to Serie A, where he was recognized for his leadership.
He has played for various teams. He has coached various teams including AC Parma, Juventus, AC Milan, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Real Madrid (2013-2015), Bayern Munich, Napoli and Everton. He is a mastermind who achieved everything. He won Serie A, two UEFA Champions League titles, and Chelsea as the first coach to win the English Premier League, Ligue 1, La Liga and Bundesliga all together.
After playing for Everton for two seasons, the possibility of Ancelotti’s return to Real was suddenly raised. Real Madrid chose Ancelotti when Zinedine Zidane left the team. Ancelotti eventually terminated his contract with Everton and took the helm of Real immediately. Six years since 2015, Ancelotti has rejoined the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, he was heavily criticized for selecting players early in the season. Ancelotti’s continued use of Federico Valverde, Dani Ceballos, and Eduardo Camavinga throughout the seasons dispersed the playing time that had been heavily concentrated on “Kcamo.” In addition, Raphael Varane and Sergio Ramos stabilized their defense line and conquered the European leagues by forming strikers around Karim Benzema and Vinicius Junior. Real won La Liga and UEFA UCL. 사설 토토사이트
In its second season, the team also brought in diverse players including Aurelien Chouameni, David Alaba, and Antonio Rudiger, raising expectations for the team. However, Real Madrid failed to win the trophy after losing to Manchester City in the second place in La Liga and the semifinal match of the UEFA UCL. Copa del Rey won the title, which ended up with no win.
He has led Real Madrid in this season as well, showing good performances in La Liga. Notably, he has eliminated the vacuum left by Karim Benzema by deploying Jude Bellingham. He has also secured six wins at the UEFA UCL, ranking first in the group, and advancing to the round of 16.
Initially, Ancelotti signed a contract with Real until June 2024. As a result, there was a possibility that he would be appointed as the coach of the Brazilian national team when his contract period ended. “Ancelotti will become the new coach of the Brazilian national team from June 2024, according to Fabrizio Romano, who was well versed in European soccer news in July. The president of the Brazilian Football Association (CBF), Ednaldo Rodriguez, has announced that he will become Brazil’s new coach from the 2024 Copa America.”
However, a variable has occurred. Forbes said that speculation that Rodriguez’s dismissal in early December added fuel to the rumor that his agreement with Ancelotti was broken. Ancelotti agreed to extend the contract with Real Madrid and plans to lead the team until 2026.
