Carlo Ancelotti just make history. After a season in which he put together a regular team that could easily beat Atlético Madrid and Barcelona, who were unable to rebuild themselves, the Real Madrid won the League and so the Italian coach won the only tournament he had left in the five big tournaments.
In an Amazon Prime production, the technical director commented on his plans for the future and among them he was surprised at a possibility that nothing in mind: directing a team running away from major teams around the world. But that contains a familiar detail.
It’s not about Italy, which needs rebuilding. Nor from Spain, or England or any other country where Ancelotti has won at the helm of teams that have always mattered and could give him enough back to take on the national team.
“A selection in the future can be an option. Canada? Why not? I would like that. He did very well.”the technical director’s response when asked if he was thinking of making the leap from a team to international football.

But the answer, which is obviously surprising, has a background. It was that Carletto was married in a second Canadian marriage Mariann Barrena McClay, her partner 10 years younger, who was with him then boyfriend for almost two years and has been married for eight. In fact, the wedding was in Vancouver.
The coach himself commented a few months ago that he would support the North American team in Qatar after Italy did not qualify: “I will cheer for Canada, it is my second country. Italian is the president of the federation, qualifies in an extraordinary way and has very good players. I’m in the Canadian jersey. “

Is Ancelotti’s retirement near?
–“After this stage at Real Madrid, I will probably retire. But if Real Madrid wants me to stay here another 10 years, I will be 10 years away.”
-“I want to be with my grandchildren, to be on vacation with my wife. There are so many things to do and I have to put aside.. Go to a lot of places I have never been before. I have never been to Australia. I have never been to Rio de Janeiro. I want to visit my sister more often. Unfortunately, you can’t do everything, so the day I retire I will do all these things. “
