A contratação de Carlo Ancelotti para técnico da seleção brasileira, anunciada pela CBf nesta segunda-feira, foi aprovada pelo presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Em viagem oficial à China, Lula afirmou que o italiano é um grande técnico, mas ressaltou que o problema do Brasil é outro: “Nós estamos numa entressafra de jogadores. É só lembrarmos do nosso ataque de 2002 e 2006 para você vê que estamos longe daquilo lá”.
— Se formos analisar a biografia do Ancelotti, ele é um grande técnico. Foi um bom jogador, um bom técnico. Mas o problema do Brasil, eu acho, é que nós estamos numa entressafra de jogadores. Não é igual ao que já tivemos. Se compararmos essa safra com 58, 62, 70, 82, 86, 2002 e 2006, essa safra é mais frágil. É só lembrarmos nosso ataque de 2002 e 2006 para você vê que estamos longe daquilo lá — afirmou o presidente.
Lula diz que Ancelotti é ótimo treinador, mas a questão é a entressafra de jogadores
Ainda assim, Lula espera que a larga experiência de Ancelotti dê conta de classificar a seleção à Copa do Mundo de 2026, e, quem sabe, vencê-la. Também afirmou que não tem nada contra o Brasil ser comandado por um técnico estrangeiro, apesar de o país ter muitos técnicos brasileiros capazes de dirigir a equipe.
— O nosso problema, talvez, seja mais estrutural, mais organizacional para que a gente possa ter uma boa seleção. Acho muito difícil ficar juntando jogador 15 dias antes do jogo, treinador dois dias, escalar o time e achar que vai ganhar, quando todo mundo se prepara muito — disse.
O presidente ainda deu uma dica à CBF:
— Já disse ao presidente da CBF. Gostaria de fazer uma experiência convocando os melhores jogadores que terminam o Campeonato Brasileiro. Terminou o Brasileiro, vamos fazer uma seleção dos 22 melhores jogadores para ver o que dá. Acho que seria igual, ou melhor, do que convocando de todo o mundo.

Pete Rose timeline: How MLB’s all-time hits leader got on and off the ineligible list
Pete Rose is officially off MLB's ineligible list and has a clear path to the National Baseball Hall of Fame, assuming Cooperstown actually wants him.MLB commissioner Rob Manfred ended a decades-long saga on Tuesday by announcing he will reinstate all deceased members of baseball's ineligible list, reversing the decisions that prevented Rose, Shoeless Joe Jackson and several others from entering the Hall of Fame. The decision reversed Manfred's own prior decisions that specifically turned down reinstatement for both Rose and Jackson.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementIt is generally known that Rose was kept out of the Hall of Fame because he bet on baseball while serving as manager of the Cincinnati Reds, but the story is much more complicated than some realize. It was not as simple as kicking Rose out of the game for breaking one of its firmest rules, nor did reports of […]
