Italian And Real Madrid Manager - Ancelotti, To Become Brazilian Manager


Carlo Ancelotti will be Brazil boss in 2024, says president Ednaldo Rodrigues.

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti will take charge of Brazil next summer, says the Brazilian Football Confederation President.


The Present Real Madrid Manager is one of the experienced coaches around. This decision by the Brazilian Authority do come as a surprise, for choosing a non South-American.


Rodrigues said Fernando Diniz, who is the current head coach of Fluminense and newly appointed (Interim) head coach of the Brazil national team will oversee the Selecao until then.

"He will come and make the transition in Brazil for Ancelotti," Rodrigues said.

"His game plan is almost similar to that of the coach that will take over at Copa America, Ancelotti.

"We don't call him an interim coach of the national team."

Brazil have been without a permanent head coach since the World Cup, when Tite resigned following their quarter-final defeat by Croatia, with under-20s coach Ramon Menezes taking charge of recent friendly fixtures.

Ancelotti, whose contract expires next summer, would be the first foreign manager to coach Brazil since 1965. There has been no official word from Ancelotti or Real Madrid that he will depart the club next year.
