Significant changes are expected in European football. Carlo Ancelotti, who turned Madrid's 'Real' club into the champion of Spain and the winner of the European Champions League last season, may leave his position prematurely.
The Black Quarter: The quarter-finals will determine Ancelotti's future
According to renowned insider journalist Fabrizio Romano, if 'Real' fails to advance past the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the club's management is considering parting ways with the Italian specialist.
It should be noted that in the first match of the quarter-finals, 'Real' lost 0:3 at home to their opponent. The return match will take place on April 16.
Ancelotti and 'Real' — achievements and controversies
Since Ancelotti took charge of 'Real' in 2021, the team has:
- Won the Spanish La Liga championship;
- Won the Champions League;
- Claimed the Spanish Super Cup and several other trophies.
Nevertheless, it is said that the club's management is not fully satisfied with him. One of the main criticisms is that young talented players — Arda Güler and Endrick — are not getting enough playing time.
The coach has a contract, but his future is uncertain
The 65-year-old specialist's current contract with the 'royal club' is set to last until the summer of 2026. However, considering that results are paramount in football, the outcome of the return match in the quarter-finals could determine his future.
A decisive day at 'Santiago Bernabeu' is approaching
The football world is looking forward to April 16. The fate of 'Real' in the Champions League will not only determine the team's most important direction for the season but also Ancelotti's future.
The result of the return match could signify the beginning of a new era at 'Real'...
