Real Madrid Confidencial The Former Real Madrid Coach Who 'offers Himself' as Ancelotti's Replacement
Arrigo Sacchi confesses that he wants to return to the benches 21 years after his retirement
Arrigo Sacchi, former Real Madrid coach, has left open the possibility of returning to the bench after 24 years of retirement. In a recent interview with "Adnkronos," the Italian confessed: "I'm thinking about coaching again, I have many offers".
Although he didn't reveal his exact destination, he mentioned that the offers come from various countries, including Brazil, Argentina, and Spain. At 78 years old, Sacchi remains one of the most influential figures in world soccer.
Revolutionary in Soccer
The coach revolutionized soccer in Italy and Europe with his innovative tactics, especially his famous "offside" defense that changed the way the game was played in Serie A.
During his time at Milan (1987-1991), he achieved an impressive record with eight titles, including two European Cups and one Scudetto. Sacchi also led the Italian national team, taking them to the runner-up position in the 1994 World Cup in the USA.
Although his last coaching job was with Parma in 2001, his legacy endures. In his career, Sacchi also coached Atlético de Madrid and served as director of football at Real Madrid. Now, after more than two decades away from professional soccer, the former coach might be ready to return.
Future to Be Resolved
Regarding his future, Sacchi doesn't know if he will take the challenge in Italy or abroad. But it's clear that the offers keep coming. "They ask me to go to many places, even to Spain," he highlighted.
The possibility of his return to Spanish soccer generates speculation. Sacchi's name has been linked to the possible succession of Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid.
Throughout his career, Sacchi left an indelible mark on both clubs and national teams. His ability to innovate tactically and his unique personality place him as one of the most respected coaches in the world.
Now, at 78 years old, he might be about to start a new chapter in his historic career. Will this be the most unexpected comeback in modern soccer? Time will tell.
