Ancelotti coaches Brazil, and old friends from Tianjin speak out!
6:58pm, 15 May 2025【Football】
On May 12, the Brazilian Football Association announced that "the greatest national football team in history will be led by the most successful coach in the world football world." Italian Ancelotti became the first foreign head coach of the Brazilian men's football team.
Ancelotti and Brazil hold hands more like two frustrated people keeping each other warm.
Ancelotti has coached Juventus, AC Milan, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and other giant clubs. He has won 5 Champions League championships and is the only coach to win all the championships in the five major European leagues.
While coaching Real Madrid, Ancelotti won a total of 15 trophys, including three Champions League titles. However, this season, Real Madrid suffered a series of losses, losing four times to Barcelona in the La Liga national derby. Ancelotti's breakup with Real Madrid is a foregone conclusion.
Before this, Brazil was also unhappy in the World Cup. In the World Cup qualifiers in March this year, Brazil lost 1-4 to its old rival Argentina. The coach Dorival, who took office in January 2024, was dismissed directly, and his team scored 7 wins, 6 draws and 3 losses in 16 games.
Brazil is currently ranked fourth in the 2026 World Cup South American qualifiers, 10 points behind top Argentina.
Brazil hopes that Ancelotti's arrival can awaken the team, and Ancelotti, who has won everything in the club, also wants to lead the rise of a veteran giant at the national team level to prove that his coaching ability is still the top coach.
Of course, when Ancelotti comes to the Brazilian national team, he will not feel too strange. After all, Vinicius, Rodrigo and others were all his disciples when coaching Real Madrid.
For Ancelotti and Brazil, there is no problem entering the US, Canada and Mexico World Cup. As long as you score 6 points in the next 4 games, you can achieve your goal. The real challenge is how far the Samba Legion can go in the 2026 World Cup. After winning the World Cup in 2002, Brazil never entered the World Cup final again. What Brazil needs is Ancelotti leading the team to the semi-finals, finals, and even win the championship in the US, Canada and Mexico World Cup.
For Brazilians, since they have chosen a foreign coach, they must be a top coach like Ancelotti who can save the scene. Secondly, most of the Brazilian players play in the European League, and the playing style brought by Ancelotti may be more recognized by the big-name players in the team.
In fact, Ancelotti can not only suppress the current Brazilian team members, but also the Brazilian geniuses who were once born out of nowhere have also been favored by Ancelotti. Pato, who once played in Tianjin, is one of them.
In 2007, Pato, who was less than 18 years old, made his first stop in Europe, was AC Milan, coached by Ancelotti. As a non-EU player, Pato, who was under 18, did not make his Rossoneri debut until January 13, 2008, and he scored a goal in his debut, helping AC Milan beat Naples 5-2.
Since then, Ancelotti has always loved Pato, and the young Pato has also grown into an offensive weapon for AC Milan under the guidance of Ancelotti.
In Pato's words, Ancelotti is like his father, and Ancelotti even named his beloved dog "Pato".
However, the cooperation between the two did not last long. When Ancelotti went to Chelsea to coach in 2009, she wanted to bring Pato to the Premier League, but failed to do so due to transfer fees and other reasons.
And Pato also began to suffer frequent injuries soon, and his career ultimately failed to reach the height expected by the outside world, becoming a once dazzling but flashing meteor in AC Milan's history.
Now, although 35-year-old Pato has not officially announced his retirement, he has been unemployed at home for a year and a half and has basically bid farewell to professional football.
When the news that his mentor Ancelotti was coaching the Brazilian team came, Pato also immediately stood up for Ancelotti.
Ancelotti's arrival will add something different to the team that we have needed in a long time but have never had. Players will respect Ancelotti, who will become the master of the team and bring the team to the highest level in the world. The situation of the national team has been going on for a long time, but now Brazilian fans are starting to look forward to it again. Brazilian fans have begun to hope to become the world champion again. We will all support Ancelotti in Brazil. Ancelotti needs to know that all his tactical deployment can be achieved here and win the world championship. I believe that Brazilians will welcome you with open arms and support you in achieving outstanding results, because your success is our success and welcome you. ——Pato
It is currently reported that Ancelotti is considering bringing Kaka to his Brazilian national team coaching staff. And as Ancelotti's other Brazilian addict, will Pato have a chance to find a new job this time?
