Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is adamant that the Spanish giants will not sack him after an embarrassing defeat at the hands of Manchester City in the Champions League semi-finals.
Ancelotti’s contract ends next season, and there are speculations about his future, with many reports claiming the Italian manager has agreed to become Brazil’s national team manager.
Manchester City defeated Real Madrid 4-0 at the Etihad Stadium on May 17, 2023, in order to progress to the Champions League final for the second time in three seasons.
Two first-half goals from Bernardo Silva, one from Manuel Akanji, and an injury-time goal from the young Julian Alvarez sealed the famous win against the 14-time champions.
Manchester City will then face 2010 Champions League winners Inter Milan on June 10, 2023, in Istanbul, Turkey.
When asked about his future in a post-match conference after the defeat to Manchester City, the manager said, “‘We have lost to a team with more quality and more intensity than us.”
“Last year we were superior, and this year they were superior. It’s a defeat that hurts a lot. They’ve been much better; there’s no other choice but to think about next season.
“Next season, I will be here to fight to win another Champions League.
“No one doubts me. I think the president was very clear 15 days ago. What he tells me in private, I’m not going to say here.”
Real Madrid have been extremely poor this season; they lost the La Liga title to Barcelona on a 14-point difference and ended the season with only the Copa Del Rey, which is beyond Florentino Perez’s standard for his managers.
