Official: Carlo Ancelotti Returns To Real Madrid As Head Coach

Italian manager Carlo Ancelotti has been announced as the new head coach of Real Madrid on Tuesday for a second spell as manager.

The Italian was previously in charge of Real between 2013 and 2015 and won the Champions League during his first spell and will replace Zinedine Zidane, who left the post last month.

Ancelotti, who has been in charge of Everton since December 2019, will return to the club where he won the Copa del Rey, the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup.

“I would like to thank Everton FC, my players and the supporters for giving me the opportunity to manage this fantastic and historical club. I decided to leave as I have a new challenge with a team that was always in my heart, Real Madrid,” Ancelotti wrote on Twitter. https://twitter.com/MrAncelotti/status/1399783937082380289?s=19
