Football fans rejoice: Carlo Ancelotti is staying put as Brazil’s national team boss until at least 2030. The CBF’s contract renewal signals unwavering faith in the tactical genius amid preparations for the 2026 World Cup.
Since stepping in last May, the 66-year-old has navigated 10 games with five triumphs, three setbacks, and two stalemates, clinching qualification for the June 2026 showdown in the US, Mexico, and Canada.
Ancelotti’s passion shone through in his official remarks: ‘From day one in Brazil a year back, I felt football’s heartbeat here. Our mission: propel the national team back to world dominance. Yet, CBF and I seek additional victories, patience, and effort.’
He enthused further, ‘Delighted to pledge the next four years together up to 2030 World Cup. Thanks to CBF’s confidence and Brazil’s loving embrace.’
CBF chief Ednaldo Rodrigues called it a pivotal day. ‘Ancelotti’s prolonged stay advances our vow to equip our pentacampeões with a dynamic, resilient setup for battles ahead.’
Brazil’s campaign launches June 13 versus Morocco, marking Ancelotti’s debut major tournament with the Seleção. A World Cup veteran as player and Italian staffer, he’s breaking new ground as the first overseas coach for Brazil. Squad reveal happens Monday, fueling nationwide buzz.
