Now we can say Ancellotti leaving Real Madrid was just a rumour, while his new contract ends in 2026 Real Madrid may want him to continue depending on his performance, also I guess Real Madrid really can now wait for Xabi Alonso who is currently doing great in bayern Leverkusen. Brazil definitely will be disappointed about the whole drama but I guess they will look for other options.
It was quite a relief because Ancelotti ultimately remained at Real Madrid after it was previously reported that he would become coach of the Brazilian National Team. while the rumors regarding Xabi should stop after this latest final news. Yes, at least, Xabi is currently on fire and is good at coaching Leverkusen, who are currently still at the top standings in the Bundesliga. So, for now, Real Madrid will focus more on finding players who will strengthen this club, even though they have Bellingham, they still need strikers, one of them, to further strengthen the team, and also several talented players in other positions. Because after all, competition is getting tighter and more difficult, both in La Liga and in the UCL.
I would be more surprised if Ancelotti happens to manage Brazil, because I don't remember Brazil being managed by european. But the prospect of him leading the Brazilian national team which has rich footballing history and the flair of the samba dance held a certain allure. Many hoped that Ancelotti could be the catalyst to refresh and bring back the glory days of Brazilian football.
This was also a matter of debate there, when Ancelotti was to become their national team coach. because after all, Brazil has many football legends and there are several quite capable professional coaches in Brazil. So this might be one of the considerations until finally this decision is made.
