Carlo Ancelotti has officially stepped down as Real Madrid manager to take the role of managing the Brazil national team, but the club remains open to a future return for him in a different capacity, such as a club ambassador or advisor, after the 2026 World Cup. The decision for Ancelotti’s departure was amicable, reflecting the strong mutual respect between him and club officials, including Florentino Perez. As he focuses on his new position, the enduring connection with Real Madrid suggests that his story with the club may not be over yet.
