The Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, whose departure from Madrid's "Real" club is certain, will soon start working as the head coach of the Brazil national team. This news has generated significant interest within the international football community.
Brazilian President Luis Inacio Lula da Silva also expressed his opinion regarding the appointment of the 65-year-old specialist. According to the "O Globo" publication, the country's leader approves of the national team being managed by local specialists.
"Considering Ancelotti's extensive experience and professionalism, I believe he can help the national team. I am not fundamentally against foreign specialists, but there are sufficiently qualified and talented coaches in Brazil to manage the national team," emphasized Luis Inacio Lula da Silva.
From the moment Carlo Ancelotti takes over the national team, he will join the ranks of the highest-paid national team coaches in the world. The local football federation has promised Ancelotti an annual salary of 9 million euros.
