Brazil Puts Ancelotti Between a Rock and a Hard Place, Deadline for His Decision

Rumors Placing Carlo Ancelotti as Brazil's Coach Have Reappeared After Two Years. During the early months of 2023, there was speculation about this possibility given the irregular performance of the Reggiolo coach's players, a situation that would repeat this season.

In the CBF, they want, according to reports published by multiple sports media, to have the Italian coach's soccer services as soon as possible. The dismissal of Tite as the verdeamarelo coach has brought a period of unstable performance that neither Fernando Diniz nor Dorival Júnior have been able to solve since the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

Eduardo Inda has pointed out, in the latest episode of 'El Chiringuito de Jugones', that the Brazilian Federation won't wait indefinitely for the coach's decision. "I'm told that the CBF has asked Ancelotti to state whether he's going to Brazil before the Champions League final", reveals the journalist. The director of 'OKDiario' confirms that "they give him a two-month margin" to decide if he truly wants to be the next coach of the Canarinha.

The information handled by the veteran journalist highlights that "the top management is upset with the coach because they say he has lost control of the team" this season. In the Valdebebas offices, they don't hide their discontent with some decisions made by the Reggiolo coach. The clearest example would be a Luka Modric who "plays more minutes than he should".

Decision Against the Clock

The CBF Puts More Pressure on a Carlo Ancelotti who would have denied any link with the South American Federation in his latest press conferences. The Real Madrid coach recalls his desire to continue with the merengue squad beyond his current contract, which definitively ends in the summer of 2026 after his renewal.

However, both Ancelotti himself and the merengue bosses would have arguments to break that link before the agreed timeframe. Mario Cortegana has cited up to four reasons why Carlo Ancelotti could leave the local bench at Santiago Bernabéu this very summer. At the same time, it seems unlikelythat from the Valdebebas offices they will allow the Italian coach to continue if he doesn't achieve major titles like LaLiga or the Champions League in the season.

This Dilemma Leaves Even More Room for Debates About the Immediate Future of a Carlo Ancelotti who has already received the CBF ultimatum according to Eduardo Inda. The possibility of becoming the coach of the Brazilian national team will be open for only two months and will end just before the Champions League final, the match on May 31.

Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti's players face the final hours of preparation for the match against Real Sociedad. The first white team is playing for a place in the La Cartuja final at Santiago Bernabéu, a tie in which they have an advantage thanks to Endrick's goal.
