Tite left office after the elimination of Brazil in the quarterfinals of the World Cup in Qatar. The Brazilian federation issued a statement in February denying it had reached a verbal agreement with Ancelotti, who has a contract with Real Madrid until 2024.
“There is a great possibility that he will come,” Ederson told reporters ahead of Brazil’s match against Morocco on March 25.
The Manchester City goalkeeper said he spoke with some Brazilian footballers who have played under Ancelotti at Real Madrid, including Casemiro, Vinicius Jr and Eder Militao.
“What I have been told about him is that he is an exceptional coach, that the whole group likes him, he is a guy who has a very successful career, you just have to look at his resume. We will see in the near future if he will be here or not” .
“I hope we can have a new coach quickly. I am also feeling the expectation, because there are too many speculations. Is he a Brazilian or a foreign coach? We are also experiencing a phase of anxiety.”
