As of now, there is no hint from his side that Ancelotti will be moving to Brazil. Just yesterday he was commenting about the role of Aurelien Tchouameni as centre-back. Ancelotti wants to use Tchouameni in a defensive position until Nacho Fernandez is available again. Nacho got a red card during the match against Alaves and this forced Ancelotti to use Tchouameni as the centre-back. Also he is making his plans on how to enter the January transfer market for Real Madrid. Given this, I believe there is not much chance of him accepting the offer from Brazil.   

Ancelotti joining Brazil is something we saw this news during the summer when the Real Madrid fans were wired when they were about to lose their coach but Ancelotti is not going to leave Real Madrid and now since Real Madrid is near to winning more achievements in La Liga and the Champions League with Ancelotti, I don't think if he will leave the team.
When they asked Ancelotti during the summer if he wanted to leave Real Madrid for Brazil he said he was interested in staying in Real Madrid for a longer time.

I think have any official confirmation with Carlo Ancelotti will be Brazil manager at the 2024 Copa America after his contract expiry with Real Madrid, little confused with Copa America start on June 20 to July 14 next year but Carlo Ancelotti contract expiry on June 30 or ten days after Copa America have start. Actually is not much problem because La Liga competition end May 24 next year and he has one month left will get allowed from Real Madrid management let him go to be Brazil manager.
Regarding with La Liga schedule, Carlo Ancelotti not have more time with Brazil before playing in Copa America but he has much experienced and easily for him with short time teams he has capacity to make Brazil for winning Copa America.

Read this source and strong reason Carlo Ancelotti will be Brazil head coach

Yes, you are right there is still quite long time to go until the new season and of course there will be many things that change and unexpected surprises that will definitely happen during the time leading up to the upcoming new season.
But many people believe that Xabi Alonso will indeed coach Real Madrid and this will also really provide peace for Ancelotti as the former Real Madrid coach when his contract expires.
Ancelotti himself has been coach of Real Madrid more than once, so he already has the belief that Real Madrid must be able to get coach who is much better than him.
That way, Ancelotti can be calm when coaching the Brazilian national team because the team he previously coached, namely Real Madrid, has got the right coach.

From Ancelotti experience and prowess in developing every game strategy, it is certain that Brazilian will grow even better and at the 2026 World Cup Brazilian will definitely perform with better performance than the previous World Cup.
Ancelotti is the big hope for all public Brazilian to be able to bring the Brazilian national team back to being able to compete very well in the most important competition in the World Cup.

The latest news regarding FIFA World Cup 2026 is that the schedule will be out in a few weeks form now. The schedule release was supposed to happen several months ago, but it was delayed. Releasing the schedule will obviously help the host cities in their planning, and also it will be beneficial for the global audience to plan their travel (final plans can be done only after the qualifiers are complete). The tournament is being hosted by a total of 16 cities, spread across Canada, United States and Mexico. 

From several rumors that I received previously, Xabi Alonso himself actually wants to accept the offer that will be made by Real Madrid, but he wants to really make sure first that he can bring Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga.
And of course, when Xabi Alonso succeeds in bringing Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga, the market value will increase and Xabi will definitely get much bigger salary.

By coaching Real Madrid, it will be very possible for them to win every competition they participate in, there is even big possibility that they can also get treble winner considering that Xabi Alonso is great coach with very capable line-up of players and strategy.
Xabi Alonso ability is said to be able to bring about better changes for Real Madrid and can bring Real Madrid back to its lost glory days where it always dominated every competition, including the UCL.

Still everything comes back to Xabi Alonso whether he wants to leave Leverkusen more quickly or not and this will be the task of Real Madrid management or owners in convincing Xabi Alonso.

I said that the deal seems to be "pretty safe" for a reason and that was because I couldn't find any sources definitely calling the deal "safe". Interest has been expressed from both sides from what I understand, but so far there hasn't even been a handshake confirming that this deal is sealed. If anyone knows a reliable source where we can read upon more reliable information about this agreement, I would like to know it. But this could still go in different ways when Real Madrid has no alternative and tries to convince Ancelotti to stay for one more season. I think there are less attractive jobs than being the coach of Real Madrid.

But it's real!
If it depends on the CBF, Ancelotti will be the new coach of the Brazilian team.
Even though there is no official agreement signed, this is what is expected from Ancelotti and Brazil for 2024 and so far the only thing that could prevent this is a contract renewal proposal from Real Madrid.
Unfortunately, all agreements so far are only verbal, so it is difficult to say what will actually happen.
Here in Brazil, the indication of the CBF for Lancelotti is very strong, but it seems to me that this is not what the coach wants for his future, otherwise he would have already confirmed this possibility.

I am wondering if we are looking at the same table for the Brazilian national team or if you have some other data available than anybody else, but my take is that Brazil lost all of their last three games in the World Cup qualifiers and they tied one game before that losing streak. This means they got 1 out of 12 points in the last four games. Does that look like constant improvement to you?

Ancelotti is not Brazilian obviously, but it is possible that the president will make an exception here because he knows that there are hardly any coaches available at the same level as Ancelotti. It could be a wise choice to give him a chance.

It seems to me that in Brazil, leaders like to wear wooden glasses. Honestly, there are so many jokes coming from them that sometimes I tend to laugh so much that I can't contain myself. For example, regarding the Brazilian national team, the players that make up the Brazilian national team's squad are players coming from teams abroad, mainly from the big European teams, and when they hire a Brazilian coach who only has experience with Brazilian teams ( Brazilian local league), it is unlikely that this same coach will be able to create good strategies and make the team play very well in a way that brings good results, mainly because in Latin America there are already many national teams with good players and coaches

What makes Brazil no longer a team with extreme dominance over other teams, just look at the list of players from Argentina and Uruguay and we will see that they are two teams that have good players who play in Europe and have good coaches, and that This alone makes them capable of beating Brazil many times in a row, while Brazil has had players who are constantly involved in controversy, it is difficult for good Brazilian players to reach 38 years of age playing for major European teams. I sincerely doubt that the Real Madrid coach will accept the role of Brazil coach, that would only destroy his good reputation

Currently they are up in a position where you qualify for the World Cup and their form recently have been in somewhat constant improvement.Sure they started these qualifiers not in the best of ways making quite a couple of false steps which at some point in the standings they were out of the qualifying positions but that is not the case anymore.

As for Brazilian coaches they tend to not do well in Europe but there is an exception and that is Sylvinho as the only Brazilian coach to have led a small country like Albania to be first of the group in Euro qualifiers and he will be the only Brazilian coach taking part in the Euro 2024 tournament.This is encouraging for them as before that the Brazilian coaches were only successful with a strong team like national team of Brazil.

That's why when we saw the news about Ancelotti joining Brazil, even the president of this country said they didn't want to have this coach and they preferred to use Brazilian coaches for their teams.
Brazil is a country that won the World Cup title more than any other country and that's why it's pretty much normal to see they prefer to don't use the non-Brazilian coaches.
But currently, they are not in a good situation and maybe Ancelotti join the team soon.

We have no doubts about Carlo Ancelotti's skills and experience. His duties at club level have undoubtedly impressed us. However, there is a significant difference between club level football and national level football. Top teams at club level usually bring together good quality players from around the world and it is relatively easy to succeed as a manager in that team. As the team is Brazil, it is a positive aspect for Carlo Ancelotti because he will get very good players in this team and those who will sit on the bench will also give good support to the team. It's only a matter of time before Carlo Ancelotti takes over. Brazil football may keep him until the World Cup if he can do well after the first one-year contract.

On paper, they have such a strong attack. But it didn't worked during CONMEBOL qualifiers. Rodrygo, Vinicus Jr and Gabriel Jesus were present in the squad for qualifiers, but they suffered heavy defeats against Uruguay, Colombia and Argentina. Remember that Colombia is a team that failed to qualify for the 2022 Qatar world cup. I don't have any doubt that the absence of Neymar is having a big impact on their perforamance. Luckily for them, the next round of qualifiers are scheduled for September 2024, and by then he should be 100% fit.

For attacking line, Brazil have many players already with Gabriel Jesus, Richarlison, Vinicus Jr, Rodrygo and right now they have youth talented with most impressive performance Endrick. Have experienced when becoming club manager and Carlo Ancelotti is the only one of manager success won Champion League trophy with three difference teams no doubt his tactician will make Brazil have better performance. Have many Brazilian players with top european teams and Carlo Ancelotti not really need adaption because he was ever with Casemiro, Rodrygo, Rihcarlison, Gabriel Militao and Vinicius Jr.

Seems easily for Carlo Ancelotti bring Brazil have good result in the future although Ancelotti still less experience when becoming national teams manager.

I am not sure if that happened before in Brazil's history, I do not remember them being this bad before, it is really a shocking result to me. I understand that it may not be all that great but at the end of the day we are talking about a football team and every team has bad periods. Look at Germany, they had an elite team that won everything, but they lost now. Look at Italy, won the euro cup and failed to go to world cup, every team has good times and bad times, we just need to accept that.

Brazil is going through the bad times now and I think it is going to be fine, it will not matter all that much. I think as long as they end up with something decent enough, then I believe that they should be fine and not have any trouble.

Actually, Brazil has never been coached by foreign nationals outside Brazil.
Brazil has been trained by foreigners but in the old days

1 Ramon Platero (Uruguay)
Brazil's first foreign coach was Ramon Platero. This Uruguayan passport coach handled the Brazilian national team in 1925.

2. Joreca (Portugal)

The next Brazilian foreign coach is Joreca. Interestingly before coaching the Brazilian national team in 1944

3. Filpo Núñez (Argentina)
He coached the Brazilian national team in 1965.

We won't know for sure until Carlo Ancelotti can prove it, it cannot be denied that he is a successful coach and there are many hopes that his presence next summer will bring changes to the Brazilian national team, but coaching a national team will always be different from coaching a club, in a national team the coach must be careful in choosing players because they will only train when there is a match because the player will spend more time at the club, but Ancelotti will not run out of material for good players in Brazil because this country always produces players with very good talent and has the quality is almost the same as each other, which is why competition to become a national player in Brazil is very tight, and we often see players who look good at the club no longer playing for the Brazilian national team because other players have been called up.

But we are noticing quite a change with the inclusion of two players in the team, who served as the manager of the Brazil team in the 2022 World Cup and who currently serves as the manager of the Brazil team. The new manager, who used to keep players as auto-choices from the former Brazil manager, has replaced those auto-choices with players who are talented and can do well for the team. Despite having relatively good players in the squad, Brazil is not getting good results only because of injuries to their key players. By the time Carlo Ancelotti takes charge of the Brazil team expect most of the key players to be injury free and injury free to do well under Carlo Ancelotti.

@out of mind once he takes over then it’ll signal the end of Casemiro Brazil’s career as he had sold him while being the coach of Real Madrid and thus I expect him to drop him from the Brazil team right away. Furthermore Ancelotti is very experienced and he can definitely handle this huge challenge that he’s about to take and lastly I’m hoping that he can finally unlock this Brazil sides potential as they often don’t play their best football these days.
