Carlo Ancelotti leaves Real Madrid to coach Brazil

Legendary soccer coach Carlo Ancelotti, 65, has decided to leave Spanish giants Real Madrid to become manager of Brazil. His final match for Madrid will be on the 25th of May. He will start his new position with Brazil on the following day. Mr Ancelotti told reporters: "From the 26th, I will be the Brazil coach, and it's an important challenge. Right now, I'm the Real Madrid coach, and I want to finish this final stretch and this fantastic adventure here." Brazil will be Ancelotti's first role as a manager of a national team. Ancelotti is one of the most successful football managers ever. He is the only coach to win the top five leagues in Europe. He has also won the UEFA Champions League a record five times.

Brazil is the world's most successful international team. It is the only country to have won the FIFA World Cup five times. However, the last time was in 2002. Since then, it has not reached the final. In 2014, the team was beaten 7-1 by Germany in the semi-finals. Ednaldo Rodrigues, the president of Brazil's football federation, hopes Ancelotti can change Brazil's fortunes. Mr Rodrigues said: "Ancelotti is the greatest coach in history, and now he is at the head of the greatest national team on the planet. Together we will write new glorious chapters in Brazilian football." Ancelotti will be in charge of Brazil's team for the World Cup qualifying games against Paraguay and Ecuador next month.
