Carlo Ancelotti is going through one of the most challenging moments of his career at Real Madrid. Despite the good relationship with Florentino Pérez, the poor results of the season have put his future on the line. The pressure on the coach is increasing, and the club's management seems to be making tough decisions.
Although his bond with Florentino has been key during his tenure, having a close relationship is not enough to secure a position at Madrid. The objectives are not being met, and the possibility of Ancelotti's cycle coming to an end seems increasingly likely.
An uncertain future for Carlo Ancelotti?
Ancelotti still has a contract until 2026, which seemed to ensure his stay. However, the situation is far from clear. If the results don't improve, the coach's future at Real Madrid could change, even sooner than was desired.
According to Joaquín Maroto, one of the voices closest to the Madrid environment, the situation seems unsustainable. "Ancelotti still has a year of contract, but that doesn't mean much. He's showing signs of wear," Maroto stated.
Ancelotti's farewell to Real Madrid
Maroto's words don't leave much room for hope for Madrid fans. "I don't think he's going to continue next season," the journalist indicated. This is the first blow for Ancelotti, who could see his departure from Madrid confirmed in the short term.
Besides his possible departure, Ancelotti had another great dream: to coach the Brazilian national team. However, this dream also seems to be fading. The Brazilian Football Confederation has advanced considerably in negotiations with another coach.
The Brazilian dream also deflates
According to the latest information, negotiations are "very advanced" with Jorge Jesus, another coach who was in Brazil's orbit. This means that the possibility of Ancelotti taking charge of the Brazilian national team is also practically ruled out.
This second blow to Ancelotti's aspirations adds to the first. There no longer seems to be room either in Madrid or Brazil for Ancelotti, leaving him without clear options to continue his career.
A new beginning for Ancelotti
The Italian coach might have to start from scratch in a new phase, far from the big clubs and national teams. Ancelotti's experience, knowledge, and ability to manage locker rooms make him a highly valued coach, but the current outlook is uncertain.
