Madrid, May 3 || With the 2024/25 season nearing an end, a lot of speculation is surrounding Real Madrid head coach Carlo Ancelotti’s future at the club as the Italian has been linked with a move to the Brazil national team. Ancelotti insists he is currently fully focused on the La Liga season, which ends on May 25 and will announce his and the club’s decision only after the season.
"I can clarify. I have a lot of affection for my club, my players, and my fans, just as I respect them. I will speak about my future on the 25th, and not before,” said Ancelotti.
When further pressed on the topic, Ancelotti said that he would not allow his relationship with the club to turn sour and hopes for a ‘fantastic farewell' whenever he decides to say goodbye.
“I can’t tell you what will happen, but I have never had problems with Real Madrid. And I will never fight with the club. My goodbye, whenever it happens in 2025, 2026, or 2030, it will be fantastic because I love this club and the club loves me,” he said.
Despite securing two La Liga titles, three Champions League trophies, and several other accolades during his second tenure with Los Blancos, recent defeats and the absence of silverware this season have raised questions about Ancelotti's future.
Real Madrid's campaign has been disappointing this season, as they have already lost the finals of the Copa del Rey and a quarterfinal defeat in the Champions League.
