Carlo Ancelotti becomes Brazil's new coach

The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has officially made Carlo Ancelotti the new head coach of the Brazilian men's national team. It came after months of speculation on his next move after Real Madrid's season ended without great victories. Ancelotti, known for his smart tactics and calm style, will leave Madrid after their last La Liga game. This deal will be valid from June onwards, and not from the FIFA Club World Club, as mentioned by Fabrizio Romano.

His hiring is a big move to help Brazil become a top team again. The CBF's leader, Ednaldo Rodrigues, said Ancelotti is the perfect choice. Moving from club to national team coaching, Ancelotti must blend Brazil's young stars with his winning strategies. He knows players like Vinicius Junior and Rodrygo from Madrid, which will help. Fans and experts are hopeful that Ancelotti's challenging experience will lead Brazil to success in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. This step shows Brazil's goal to return to the top of world football with Ancelotti's guidance.
