JAKARTA - The puzzle of the future of Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has been answered. He will not handle the Brazilian national team. Madrid has extended Ancelotti's contract until 2026.

Anceloti has become a rumor that he will puzzle the Brazilian national team over the past nine months. The news became even more widespread after Madrid failed to defend the La Liga title which was won by Barcelona.

Not only that, the club also never renewed Ancelotti's contract which ended in 2024. But Madrid finally extended the coach's contract.

Ancelotti himself has been in charge of Los Merengues since 2021. This is the second time this former Chelsea and Everton manager has come to the Santiago Bernabeu.

Previously, Ancelotti had puzzle Madrid from 2013 to 2015. This Italian coach led Madrid to win La Liga Spain twice, winning the Champions League and Club World Cup.

"Real Madrid CF and Carlo Ancelotti have reached an agreement to extend our coach's contract until June 30, 2026," the club said. Madrid renewed the Carletto contract which shows good performance this season. The team perched at the top of the standings ending the first half of the competition. Despite competing closely with Girona, Madrid have left tough competitors Barca and Atletico Madrid.

In addition, Madrid still survives in the Champions League. They have qualified for the last 16 and have returned to being one of the favorites to lift the wide-early trophy.

The club also gave appreciation to Ancelotti who never complained when the team lost many players who were injured. Ancelotti never spits at new players.

The former AC Milan and Juventus coach never made the player injured as an excuse if the team lost.

Ancelott could actually maximize the existing players. In fact, he managed to position the right position for Jude Bellingham.

As a result, this signing player from Borussia Dortmund immediately became the mainstay of Los Blancos.
