For those who still doubted it, the Ancelotti case perfectly testifies to the intransigence of Real Madrid. During his first stint in the Spanish capital (2013-2015), the Italian technician was unceremoniously fired, just a year after lifting the club’s long-awaited tenth Champions League. Almost eight years later, the scenario is likely to repeat itself.
Carlo Ancelotti may have achieved the Champions League-Liga double last season, the current performances of his team clearly do not protect him from the end of his term. Casa Blanca are now second in the La Liga standings, eight points behind Blaugrana rivals. FC Barcelona is hurting the Merengues this season since it also won the final of the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia (3-1).
Ancelotti plays big in Morocco
Faced with this observation, Ancelotti plays big during the Club World Cup in Morocco. To try to revive his team, Ancelotti would, according to the Madrid press, tried to make a tactical change from 4-3-3 to 4-2-3-1. On his side, Report explains that the Italian has lost credit with his leaders. Confidence has been broken, even adds the media, which ensures that the Transalpine is playing part of its future at the Club World Cup.
The message is therefore very clear for Ancelotti, not to mention the knockout stages of the Champions League which is looming against a Liverpool team in the worst possible condition. A victory in Morocco coupled with a qualification for the quarter-finals would therefore give coach merengue some air. Otherwise, his future risks being sealed. But he can always tell himself that Brazil has been courting him for several months!
