Carlo Ancelotti is set to sign for
Brazil on May 26, two days after he leaves Real Madrid, so the
former Parma, Juventus, Milan, Chelsea, PSG, Bayern Munich,
Napoli and Everton boss can take charge of the Selecao for World
Cup qualifiers against Ecuador and Paraguay on June 3 and 8,
ESPN Brazil said Tuesday.
Reggiolo-born Ancelotti, 65, a former Roma and Milan midfielder,
has won the UEFA Champions League five times, a record for a
manager, and is the only manager to take part in six Champions
League finals.
Ancelotti is also the only manager to win league titles in all
of Europe's top five leagues.
He has been closely linked to the Brazil job since Real exited
the Champions League to Arsenal at the quarter-final stage.
