Brazil: Carlo Ancelotti expected to continue despite elimination

Knocked out in the round of 16 at the 2026 World Cup by Norway, Brazil is not expected to change managers. Rodrigo Caetano, executive director of the Brazilian national teams, confirmed that the next cycle has already begun with Carlo Ancelotti remaining at the helm of the Seleção.

Despite this early exit, the Brazilian Football Federation appears to be maintaining its confidence in the Italian coach, who arrived with the ambition of rebuilding the national team.

For his part, Carlo Ancelotti has also dismissed any notion of leaving. The former Real Madrid boss believes that this disappointment should serve as a starting point for building a more competitive squad.

“We have to keep working, improve, and find new ideas. I believe this defeat is not the end, but the start of a new cycle.”

These statements confirm the determination of the Brazilian leadership and their coach to continue the project, aiming to revive the Seleção after a disappointing 2026 World Cup.
