Confirmed: he left Madrid with Ancelotti but has a new team, starts on Saturday

Ancelotti's departure from Real Madrid a few weeks ago had significant consequences. In fact, along with him, the members of his coaching staff also said goodbye. Among them was his assistant, his son Davide, who has raised questions about what his future would be.

He was close to joining some projects, such as Glasgow Rangers, but in the end, everything fell through. He finally agreed to leave with Carletto to join the Brazil national team. He put aside his dream of leading a new project as head coach.

However, negotiations have continued and he has found a very interesting bench for himself. The current Copa Libertadores and Brasileirao champion, Botafogo, has signed Davide. The Italian will take the position as head coach, something he had been seeking this summer.

Botafogo have been competing in the Club World Cup, but they were eliminated in the round of 16. Since then, movements have started, especially because there's no time to lose. The Brazilian club will play again in its league on Saturday, although Davide wouldn't be on the bench yet.

A big question mark with Davide Ancelotti after signing with Botafogo

Davide had signed with the Brazilian Football Confederation to be Carletto's assistant. In fact, he had already been with him during the last international break this past June. But now a major dilemma arises about what will happen with him and that position he held with the canarinha.

The fact is, Davide hadn't signed any exclusivity clause with the Brazil national team. Nothing has been confirmed and it may be that until the next canarinha match, we won't have answers. Although the Ancelottis will remain very close, sharing many moments.

Both will live in Rio de Janeiro, Davide because Botafogo is a team from that city. In Carletto's case, he decided to live there to work as national team coach. So both will be able to stay in contact, sharing a lot of information to help each other in their work.
