In a historic move that’s set to reshape international football, the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) has confirmed the appointment of Carlo Ancelotti as the new head coach of the Brazil national team.
The legendary Italian tactician, widely regarded as one of the most successful managers in football history, takes over the Seleção with the aim of restoring their global dominance ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Ancelotti becomes the first European to coach Brazil in nearly six decades, marking a bold and ambitious shift by the CBF.
Ancelotti’s managerial resume is unmatched: he has won league titles in Italy, England, France, Germany, and Spain, along with four UEFA Champions League trophies — a record he shares with no one. His most recent tenure at Real Madrid saw him win La Liga, Copa del Rey, and the Champions League, solidifying his legacy as one of the greats.
Speaking at his unveiling, Ancelotti expressed excitement about leading Brazil:
“Coaching Brazil is a great honor. The country breathes football, and I hope to bring joy, discipline, and titles back to the Seleção.”
Brazilian fans and pundits alike are optimistic that Ancelotti’s experience, calm demeanor, and tactical genius can usher in a new golden era, especially with a talented crop of players like Vinícius Jr., Rodrygo, and Endrick.
With Copa América 2024 and World Cup qualifiers looming, Ancelotti has little time to settle. However, if history is any guide, Brazil may have just secured the perfect leader to guide them to glory once again.
