Ancelotti to Leave Real Madrid With Alonso Tipped to Replace Him
Carlo Ancelotti is reportedly set to leave Real Madrid at the end of the season, as revealed by Radioestadio Noche on Onda Cero.
In December 2023, Ancelotti extended his stay with Real Madrid by signing a new contract that would have kept him at the club until 2026.
However, despite his deep connection to Los Blancos, the allure of exploring new challenges appears to have convinced him to move on.
Interestingly, Ancelotti had the opportunity to leave Real Madrid earlier.
The Brazilian Football Confederation showed strong interest in appointing him as the head coach of the national team, a position that would have seen him lead Neymar and company in their quest for glory.
Despite the tempting offer, he chose to stay loyal to Madrid for one final chapter.
As rumors of his departure swirl, Xabi Alonso has emerged as the leading candidate to replace him. Alonso, a former Real Madrid star and one of Spain’s most celebrated midfielders, is making waves in coaching.
Last season, he led Bayer Leverkusen to a historic Bundesliga title, showcasing his tactical brilliance and leadership skills.
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
