Ancelotti to Leave Real Madrid at Season's End

Carlo Ancelotti has extended his contract with Real Madrid until the summer of 2026. This anticipated move was made during the successful phase of his career, during which he achieved an impressive number of titles, reinforcing his position in the club's history.

After the current season ends, Ancelotti will have one more year of work. Currently, he is temporarily replaced by José Tavares, who is substituting for Bruno, who took the place of Sérgio Conceição.

Vítor Bruno was dismissed from the position of head coach of the Portuguese club Porto due to poor results of the team. Negative indicators were the reason for starting negotiations between the club's management and Bruno regarding the termination of the contract after the defeat 1-3 from Gil Vicente.

Similar events occurred in other Portuguese clubs: Benfica and Sporting also terminated cooperation with their head coaches. Their places were taken by new specialists after the dismissal of Roger Schmidt and João Pereira respectively.

Recently surfaced information suggests that Carlo Ancelotti plans to leave Real Madrid after the current season ends, according to the radio station "Onda Cero". Porto occupies third place in the league, trailing the leader Sporting by four points.

The Italian legendary coach, whose contract was extended in December 2023, enjoyed a stunning time in his second term at the club. However, it seems that the 65-year-old coach is inclined to follow through with his decision to depart.
