‘Brasilgate’ leads to Ancelotti’s transfer to Real Madrid

Negotiation with Brazil

At first it was assumed that Ancelotti He was going to accept the offer he received from the Brazilian Football Confederation. Carlo has previously said that this will be his last season with a club and that his idea is to lead a team or retire from the bench as he is 64 and would prefer to have more time to enjoy the game. and the demands of a club did not allow him to do whatever he wanted.

There was even information from Brazil that an agreement had been signed between Carletto and the former president of the CBF, Ednaldo Rodrigues, who visited Madrid at the end of last season to meet with the Italian coach. The Brazilians put pressure on him to close his signature last summer but in the end Carlo decided completed the year he signed with the whites and Brazil opted to keep interim coach Fernando Diniz on the bench until Carletto left.

‘Brazil Gate’

However, the situation has changed drastically after the outbreak of ‘Brazilgate’. In recent weeks, the Rio de Janeiro Court of Justice decided to remove Ednaldo Rodrigues from the CBF presidency and decided to hold elections within 30 days. This is because Rodrigues signed at the time to cancel an agreement reached at the CBF General Assembly and change the selection rules in the region without the consent of the clubs. The court declared that the agreement Rodrigues reached with the Public Ministry was not legal because he was the interim president at the time it was signed.

Rodrigues no longer chairs the CBF and FIFA threatened to cancel the contract Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and all clubs in international competitions. The institution headed by Gianni Infantino does not allow any Government intervention, and the decision of the Rio de Janeiro Court of Justice to remove Ednaldo Rodrigues from the CBF presidency and call elections is against an unwritten rule.

In the letter sent by FIFA and CONMEBOL to the CBF, it is stated that “FIFA member associations must manage their affairs independently and without undue influence of any third party.” The suspension could veto Brazil’s participation in this summer’s Copa América. However, interim José Perdiz rejects FIFA’s warnings and insists that elections will be held soon.

All this meant that the talks between Carlo Ancelotti and Ednaldo Rodrigues remained fruitless. And today Carletto’s idea is to wait for a new renewal offer from Real Madrid to expand his relationship with the whites. Staying at the Bernabéu is a priority and almost the only option Ancelotti considered, he also saw how Brazil fell into a slump that saw them suffer three consecutive defeats and fail to win four games while Diniz was on the bench.

Optimism in Real Madrid

“In Real Madrid”There is optimism about the continuation of the season if it closes normally with championships”. At the club, they believe Carletto’s silence about his future is due to “a maneuver to handle the issue discreetly and avoid having to talk about it in the press room every week”. The Italian player remained firm in his decision not to make a statement whenever he was asked about the issue. It was even leaked from the club A survey was conducted about renewal to find out their intentions for June, which did not actually happen. Xabi Alonso’s continuity will be the best news as he is renewed at Leverkusen until 2026.

While this is happening, Davide Ancelotti rejected some offersAt the time, he was yet to hold the coaching title he achieved this summer, as he acquired from Everton last January to lead the Toffees. According to the information conveyed by the White leaders, in recent weeks Carletto’s son “once again rejected offers because there was interest from clubs in England and Italy, and even some important clubs in Turkey.”

2024 will start with one unknown event, with Madrid making a renewal offer to the Italian player, as long as the Whites win the title at the end of the season. Last season they added the Cup, European Super Cup and Club World Cup but dropped out of the League and fell into the semi-finals of the Champions League. The offices expect to win the League this year and show a good performance in the Champions League again, but they are aware that the team is going through a transition season with the addition of injuries. There is something Ancelotti is having trouble with. without much tactical intelligence and blame. And this management is the main argument that makes us ask for the renewal of the Reggina coach. Here’s what’s being said on the main floor: “The outbreak of ‘Brasilgate’ has turned Carlo’s immediate future even whiter. If it hadn’t happened already.”
