Carlo Ancelotti is swapping Real Madrid for Brazil in one of the biggest moves in world soccer. The problem is, neither he, nor Madrid, want to talk about it. As coaching switches go, they don’t come any bigger than this. The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported.

The Brazil Football Federation (CBF) confirmed the appointment of Ancelotti on Monday while Madrid are yet to officially announce his exit.

Jude Bellingham is without a doubt the best signing of Ancelotti's second stint at Real Madrid. The 21-year-old joined the club from Borussia Dortmund ahead of the 2023–24 season and produced one of the best overall debut seasons in the history of the club.
