Despite being reached out with a juicy offer, Carlo Ancelotti revealed why he decided to stay at Brazil instead of turning into Italy's head coach. Carlo Ancelotti emerged as a primary target to fill the managerial vacancy on the Italy national team dugout following yet another shakeup within the FIGC (Italian Football Federation). However, the former Real Madrid boss ultimately decided to remain at the helm of the Brazil national team, opening up about his decision to pass on coaching his home country. Last week, Italy technical director Paolo Maldini confirmed during the search for a new head coach that Ancelotti manager was contacted alongside Pep Guardiola. “Guardiola? We can’t share any news; you have identified one of our targets, but we have also spoken with Ancelotti. It felt right to start with the best in the world, but we need to verify their overall availability,” Maldini said during a press conference with FIGC officials. Ultimately, Andrea Pirlo emerged as a top candidate for the role, but controversial ties to a Russian betting company led FIGC president Giovanni Malago to walk away from negotiations, a dispute that prompted Maldini’s resignation. Claudio Ranieri was subsequently named technical director, with Roberto Mancini selected as the new head coach, leaving Ancelotti firmly rooted in Brazil. Ancelotti’s reasons for turning down Italy After a legendary playing career, Ancelotti got his coaching start as an assistant for the Azzurri under Arrigo Sacchi from 1992 to 1995, reaching the 1994 World Cup final. After conquering domestic titles across all of Europe’s top five leagues, the 67-year-old manager had the opportunity to come full circle by taking over as Italy‘s head coach.

Because it is not a contract issue, that’s not it. It is because I have a commitment to the CBF and to this country, because this country welcomed me so well during this first year. I want to continue here.“ While acknowledging the FIGC’s formal approach, Ancelotti reaffirmed his unwavering belief in the Brazil project. “And I obviously thanked the Italian Federation, but I want to stay here because I believe it is right and fair to stay in a country that welcomed me so well, at an institution that gave me the opportunity to work,” he stated. Ancelotti currently ranks as the highest-paid manager in international soccer, commanding an $11.3 million annual salary alongside perks such as private aviation access. The Italian federation reportedly prepared a comparable package, but neither a lucrative contract nor the pull of his homeland was enough to lure the former Real Madrid manager away from Brazil. Ancelotti remains under contract with the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) through June 2030 after extending his deal prior to the 2026 World Cup. The commitment ensures the Italian tactician will oversee the Selecao’s transition into the post-Neymar era, guiding the squad through CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers, the 2028 Copa América, and ultimately the 2030 World Cup.
Carlo Ancelotti shared his honest thoughs on Neymar's retirement from Brazil national team, as well as the decision include him in the 2026 World Cup roster: "It was the right decision to call him up." Neymar has officially announced his retirement from international soccer 16 years after making his senior debut in 2010, bringing a defining era in Brazil sports history to a close. Following the news, head coach Carlo Ancelotti reflected on the superstar’s decision to walk away, while defending his choice to include the veteran in his final World Cup roster: “It was the right decision to call him up.“ The 2026 World Cup was always envisioned as Neymar’s final international objective, an ambition so driving that he returned to Santos to escape the European spotlight and rebuild his match fitness. But a heartbreaking Round of 16 exit brought a abrupt end to his time with the Selecao, ushering in a changing of the guard as Ancelotti turns his focus toward a total program rebuild ahead of 2030. Speaking Wednesday with ESPN’s Pedro Ivo Almeida, Ancelotti made it clear that a new chapter has arrived for the five-time World Cup champions: “I think that players like Neymar, who already commented yesterday, and with all due respect to his decision. I believe that in history, one generation ends and another has to come, and it has to be better than the last one.” Addressing Neymar specifically, Ancelotti offered a candid assessment of the frustration surrounding the forward’s physical condition heading into the tournament, particularly the lingering injuries that kept him sidelined for the group stage. “The only thing that bothered me is that Neymar could have prepared himself better during that lead-up period. He could have been ready for game one instead of game four. That was the only disappointing part.“ Neymar Jr #10 of Brazil applauds fans Arriving at training camp with muscle discomfort, an MRI revealed a Grade 2 calf strain that ruled Neymar out of Brazil‘s first two group matches against Morocco and Haiti. Still, Ancelotti praised the star’s professionalism, noting his attitude “was perfect,” highlighting his focus on rehab, support for younger teammates, and work ethic in training. “I think he didn’t contribute on a technical level as it was hoped he could, because he couldn’t. But, in terms of attitude, it was a very positive attitude. I have a lot of affection for him, I thanked him for his attitude, for his behavior, and I think it was the right decision to include him on the 26-man roster,” Ancelotti concluded, maintaining that bringing the veteran to North America was no mistake. Ancelotti hints at further roster turnover Since taking charge in May 2025, Ancelotti has demonstrated a commitment to reshaping Brazil’s national team pool, blending emerging domestic talent with experienced veterans. With Neymar moving on, several other longtime pillars are approaching the end of their international careers; while a select few will be retained to provide veteran leadership, others will be phased out entirely. While developing young talent remains the cornerstone of the 2030 cycle, Ancelotti confirmed that a select group of leaders will remain in the fold: “Some of these will be there, obviously. Marquinhos, for example. Alisson, we’ll see. Obviously, we have to look at the young goalkeepers, because there are young goalkeepers who are already playing in the Campeonato Brasileiro, and other very young ones who are playing who could be there.” When asked specifically about stalwarts like Casemiro, Danilo, and Alex Sandro, whose international careers may have reached their natural conclusion in North America, Ancelotti didn’t mince words. “I think so. It is a period that is coming to an end. Obviously, we have to thank all of them, and I have a lot of affection for all of them. But I think the idea that a player over 30 is done means that we have to think about the future,” the Italian stated.
After numerous absences, Neymar sparked excitement with his return to Brazil, earning a place in the anticipated tournament. However, the veteran reportedly missed Santos FC’s latest training session, raising concerns over his physical condition ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Neymar Jr. has managed to remain one of the standout performers for Santos FC, shining creatively while maintaining rare physical consistency after years of injury setbacks. However, he recently dealt with physical discomfort that initially appeared minor ahead of upcoming matches. Despite this, the 34-year-old star reportedly missed his team’s latest training session, raising significant concerns about his fitness ahead the 2026 World Cup with Brazil. According to UOL Esporte, Neymar was absent from Santos FC training due to edema in his calf. As a result, the Brazilian star is expected to miss the club’s final two matches against Deportivo Cuenca and Esporte Clube Vitória. With this development, the 34-year-old’s participation in the 2026 FIFA World Cup with Brazil could reportedly come into question, as the severity of the injury may prove more serious than initially expected. Despite his likely absence for Santos FC in the upcoming matches, Brazil have reportedly decided to wait for Neymar until the squad’s training camp on May 27. As per Pedro Ivo Almeida via ESPN, both parties are expected to assess the extent of the injury before deciding whether the veteran will participate in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Nevertheless, Carlo Ancelotti is reportedly open to Neymar missing both friendlies, provided he follows a specific physical conditioning plan. Amid the growing reports surrounding his injury, a potential appearance by Neymar in one of Santos FC’s final matches would likely silence many of the concerns regarding his fitness. However, the 34-year-old’s absence from training and his possible unavailability for upcoming games could force Brazil to begin preparing alternative scenarios for the final squad, potentially reopening the door for João Pedro to earn a place in the setup. Neymar of Santos. Vinicius Jr. set to hand Neymar Brazil’s No. 10 for 2026 World Cup Throughout his professional career, Neymar has become as one of the greatest players in the history of Brazil, surpassing Pelé as the nation’s all-time leading scorer. Because of this, his potential presence at the 2026 World Cup would provide a major boost to the dressing room. Amid growing concerns over a possible serious injury, Vinícius Júnior revealed that he will hand back the iconic No. 10 shirt to the veteran star for the tournament. In an interview with CazéTV, Vinícius Júnior revealed : “I don’t know what number I’ll wear at the World Cup, but the No. 10 belongs to Neymar, that’s obvious.” With this gesture, the 25-year-old star demonstrates that the 34-year-old is set to remain as the leader of the dressing room, making his presence crucial. Nevertheless, the veteran star still needs to secure his presence in the anticipated tournament, depending on his fitness on May 27th.
Neymar Jr. has been included in Brazil’s final 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup. However, he could miss the national team friendlies, as there is reportedly an ongoing debate regarding his calf injury, making his availability subject to evaluation until May 27th. Neymar Jr. has managed to secure a place in Brazil’s final 26-man squad for the 2026 World Cup. Despite serious doubts surrounding his physical condition, head coach Carlo Ancelotti and his staff decided to trust his veteran leadership and experience. However, Neymar is dealing with calf problems at Santos. Because of this, he could reportedly miss the friendlies, as there is a dilemma regarding the true state of his injury. According to Pedro Ivo Almeida via ESPN Brazil, Neymar has edema in the calf of his right leg. Because of this, the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and Santos FC have two different perspectives regarding the severity of the injury. While Brazil consider that he will not be available for the debut on May 31, Santos believe that he could be ready to play on May 26 in the Copa Sudamericana. Despite these differences, the CBF are not considering removing the 34-year-old star from the 26-man squad, as they expect him to recover in the coming weeks. However, they are already planning a specific recovery program for the first days of training camp, making his presence against Panama and Egypt highly doubtful. Because of this, both parties have decided to wait for the final report on May 27 before making a decision regarding his availability. In case that that Neymar fails to recover for the 2026 World Cup debut, head coach Carlo Ancelotti could decide to leave him out of the final list. With his presence in the friendly games in doubt, the 34-year-old star is expected to have a specific workout plan to boost his fitness. The CBF and Santos FC remain positive about the evolution of his physical condition, so no additional scenarios are being planned yet. Neymar Jr. of Brazil celebrates after scoring. Joao Pedro could still replace Neymar for Brazil at 2026 World Cup Throughout the last few months, head coach Carlo Ancelotti has made it clear that Neymar, nor any other player, would receive special treatment. With this in mind, the 34-year-old star could be left out if he does not arrive in full condition for Brazil’s debut at the 2026 World Cup. In that case, João Pedro would have every chance of entering the Canarinha’s final 26-man list, as he has been part of the national team process in previous matches. After leaving João out of the final squad list, Carlo Ancelotti revealed: “Obviously, I am sad for Joao Pedro, who for the season he made in Europe probably deserved to be in this list,” he said at the press conference. With his great versatility, the 24-year-old star could cover the attacking midfielder role, both wings, and the striker position. Because of this, Neymar’s potential absence due to his calf injury opens the doors to the national team.
