Brazilian newspapers recently reported new details regarding Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti’s arrival in Brazil on May 26. According to "O Globo," Ancelotti is expected to arrive in Rio de Janeiro on this date, where he will announce the list of players selected for the World Cup qualifiers against Ecuador and Paraguay.

According to the newspaper, the Brazilian Football Confederation has devised an incentivized plan for Ancelotti in case Brazil wins the 2026 World Cup. This plan includes a substantial financial bonus of 5 million euros, along with a private jet at his disposal to facilitate his travels between Brazil and Europe, as needed.


Additionally, "Folha" newspaper reported from sources within the Brazilian Football Confederation that Ancelotti’s contract also includes several bonuses in addition to his annual salary of 10 million euros. For instance, the contract includes the rental of a luxury property in Rio de Janeiro, life insurance, and an automatic 20% salary increase if Brazil reaches the semifinals of the upcoming World Cup.


In the course of contract negotiations, Brazilian Football Confederation President Ednaldo Rodrigues had talks with Ancelotti and received positive signals regarding the possibility of reaching an agreement to end his contract with Spanish club Real Madrid. After these talks, Rodrigues asked Ancelotti to be patient, which the Italian coach agreed to. Ancelotti’s representatives told the Brazilian Federation that the official announcement of an agreement would only be made after the Spanish Clasico between Real Madrid and Barcelona, signaling that the deal was progressing behind the scenes.


Meanwhile, everyone is awaiting Real Madrid's decision regarding Ancelotti’s future with the club, especially as the team has been unable to compete for the La Liga title this season. Therefore, the Spanish club may be forced to make an official decision soon regarding the future of the Italian coach.


It seems that Ancelotti, who is considered one of the most prominent coaches in football history, will play a significant role with Brazil in the upcoming period, as Brazilian fans eagerly await his leadership to guide their national team to success in future tournaments, especially the 2026 World Cup.
