Real Madrid boss in high demand as Saudi Arabia join Brazil in pursuit of his signature | OneFootball

Carlo Ancelotti’s long-term future at Real Madrid is once again a topic of discussion in the media, with reports from Mundo Deportivo revealing that the Italian coach has received lucrative offers from Saudi Arabia.

Despite these tempting financial proposals, however, the outlet does mention that Ancelotti remains committed to Los Blancos, where he is under contract until 2026.

Whenever the topic has gained traction, the Italian has repeatedly stated that he will stay at the club as long as the board wants him, and at the moment, Real Madrid are counting on him.

Brazil pushing for Ancelotti

However, the growing interest from Brazil is forcing a rethink. As reported before, the South American nation has long admired Ancelotti and sees him as a dream candidate for their national team project.

Now, after their recent defeat to Argentina, pressure is mounting on current coach Dorival Jr., and the CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation) could reignite their efforts to secure Ancelotti’s services.

With the 2026 World Cup approaching, Brazil are keen to bring in an experienced manager who can lead them back to international glory.

Interest from the Middle East

Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia have also entered the race, offering Ancelotti a deal with astronomical financial incentives.

The Saudi Pro League has aggressively recruited top players and managers in recent years, and landing Ancelotti would be a major statement of intent.

However, reports also suggest that if Ancelotti were to leave Real Madrid, his preference would be Brazil over Saudi Arabia.

For now, the Real Madrid manager remains fully focused on the job at hand, but with major offers on the table, his future beyond this season remains uncertain.

The coming months, as well as the results, could determine whether he stays in Spain or embarks on a new chapter in his legendary managerial career.
