There were rumors for months about the new coach of Brazil, bids were made for Tite’s successor even during the World Cup in Qatar, and last night the dilemmas were definitively resolved. As revealed by the Brazilian outlet Globo and their commentators during the broadcast of the friendly match between Brazil and Guinea, the baton of the South American national team will be taken over by Carlo Ancelotti. The experienced strategist will thus become the first foreign coach of Brazil; however, the official assumption of office is not expected until the summer of 2024, after the Italian’s contract with Real Madrid expires.##EDITORS_CHOICE##The elimination by Croatia in the quarter-finals of the World Cup was a painful blow for the Brazilians, who parted ways with Tite and devotedly started the search for a new coach. From that moment on, the idea of a change of course and the possible involvement of a foreigner was simmering, the leaders of the Association got in touch with Pep Guardiola, who turned out to be an overpriced solution, and very quickly the epithet of the main favorite to take over the helm of the five-time world champions was given to Carlo Ancelotti, who accepted a new challenge will try you as a selector for the first time in a prosperous coaching career.##NAJAVA_MECA_7326268##The Italian coach returned to the Santiago Bernabeu two years ago, after a challenge on Everton’s bench, and repeated the success of his first term by climbing to the throne of Europe for the second time with the Spanish giant, while subsequent trophies in the UEFA Super Cup and the Club World Cup enriched a long list of successes. Ancelotti also left his mark on the benches of AC Milan, Juventus, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern and Napoli.Until the arrival of the Italian, however, the Brazilians face preliminary challenges in the qualification for the World Cup, and the last test before the series of games that will begin in September are two matches in June, the first of which the South American selection played last night against Guinea and registered a convincing victory (4-1)🚨Globo:Commentator Luis Roberto stated that Ancelotti WILL be the next manager of the Seleção, whether it is this year or next year. pic.twitter.com/8aOAAXGUva— Brasil Football 🇧🇷 (@BrasilEdition) June 17, 2023 During the broadcast of the game against the African team, the commentators revealed the news about the new coach, and Ancelotti had the opportunity to see the strengths and weaknesses of his future players in Barcelona, where the game was played. The Brazilians managed to turn the game in the desired direction in three minutes with the goals of Joelinton and Rodrygo, and although Guirassy restored uncertainty with a goal in the 36th minute, it only lasted until the start of the second half.In the 47th minute already, Militao brought Brazil back to ‘plus two’ after Paqueta found him, and Vinicius Junior finalized the score from the penalty spot in the 87th minute. An interesting coincidence at the end that all three Real Madrid players scored on the very night when it was announced that they would continue their collaboration with Ancelotti next year, albeit in the national team.
