Carlo Ancelotti has been appointed as head coach of the Brazil national team and will start work on May 26.
The 65-year-old Italian will leave Real Madrid after their final game of the La Liga season against Real Sociedad.
Agreements are in place and contracts signed for him to become Brazil’s first foreign appointment in the men’s dugout.

Ancelotti had a year left on his terms at the Bernabeu but a deal was confirmed following cordial talks between all parties, facilitated and led by Diego Fernandes on behalf of the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF).
Among the most successful managers in football history, Ancelotti is to pick up Brazil’s 2026 World Cup qualification campaign, with the aim of a record-extending sixth triumph at the finals in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
The Athletic previously reported that the 65-year-old had reached an agreement with Madrid over the terms of his departure.
This followed a report on April 27 from The Athletic that the Italian coach was set to leave Madrid and take the Brazil head coach role on an initial one-year deal until the end of the 2026 World Cup.
He will replace Dorival Junior with Brazil, who was dismissed in March after 14 months in charge with his first game set to be the World Cup Qualifier against Ecuador on June 6.
Ancelotti re-joined Madrid in 2021 and has won two La Liga titles and the Champions League on three occasions across two spells at the club.
Madrid exited the Champions League at the quarter-final stage to Arsenal, lost the Copa del Rey final to Barcelona in extra time last month and trail Hansi Flick’s side by seven points at the top of La Liga with three games remaining.

Craque Neto ironiza “craque” do futebol brasileiro: “Uma das maiores mentiras”

2025 MLB power rankings: Phillies, Cardinals and AL Central are heating up
Rowan Kavner MLB Writer <!--> In honor of Mother’s Day, this week’s edition of power rankings features one person from every team worth recognizing. And in honor of the Cardinals and Twins, who each enter the week having won eight straight games, that person will be someone who’s surging. Both St. Louis and Minnesota have understandably taken sizable jumps forward, though neither has quite cracked the top 10, which still features plenty of movement this week. Here are the latest FOX Sports MLB power rankings. For a while, about the only good thing that happened to the Rockies was when Jordan Beck hit five homers in three games last month (all three of those, however, were losses). Now, at least 2024 All-Star Ryan McMahon is heating up. McMahon was hitting .147 at the end of April, but he has four homers and an […]
