Ancelotti couldn’t have shown his commitment to Real Madrid in a better way. His 2nd stint at Real Madrid has been incredible and more so because when his appointment was announced, majority of the people thought he would fail. Real Madrid’s decision to appoint the veteran was seen as a backward move as people believed that Ancelotti didn’t have what it takes to manage a top club anymore. It took him just 1 season to prove his doubters wrong by winning the La Liga and the UEFA Champions League.

Carlo Ancelotti since his return to Madrid has always said that Real Madrid will be the last club that he manages and he will stay as long as the club wants him to. The legendary manager has always said that he would be open to manage a national team after his time at Real Madrid comes to an end. He may still end up becoming the Brazilian manager but it is unlikely to happen anytime soon.
