Ancelotti, from Real Madrid Coach to Possible Rival in the Club World Cup

After a rather irregular season, Ancelotti's departure from Real Madrid is practically a reality. With some LaLiga matches still pending, these are likely to be his last games with Real Madrid. An event that would confirm that, looking ahead to the Club World Cup, Real Madrid would have another coach.

While Ancelotti's future seemed to be leading the Brazilian national team toward the 2026 World Cup, everything seems to have changed. Al Hilal from Saudi Arabia has presented an interesting offer of 50 million euros per year for Carlo Ancelotti. A considerable amount, especially for such a historic coach as Carlo Ancelotti.

If Carlo Ancelotti accepts this offer, the coach would have to face Real Madrid. This is because, for the Club World Cup, Al Hilal is one of the teams that will face Madrid to try to win this championship.

Ancelotti's Rivalry

Having two successful periods with Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti is preparing to end the second one. Despite all the titles he has achieved with Real Madrid, this season ended with his chances of staying at the club. Eliminated from the Champions League and losing the Copa del Rey, Ancelotti only aims to win LaLiga.

A championship that, while not insignificant, falls quite short of what was desired from Ancelotti and the club this season. Although his farewell is planned to be appropriate for him, Madridists could quickly change their opinion.

This is because, if he accepts Al Hilal's offer, he will form a team difficult to overcome for the Club World Cup. His experience at Real Madrid could work against a club that seeks to make history by being the first to win this tournament.

Real Madrid's Surprise

With Real Madrid focused on finding their next coach, facing Ancelotti has been quite a surprise. Although Ancelotti is expected to accept being Brazil's coach, Real Madrid must prepare for any occasion.
