Carlo Ancelotti reappears on the radar of the white club for a very specific reason: the elimination of Brazil in the 2026 World Cup has left the Italian coach in a much less secure position. The blow of Canarinha against Norway has reopened a debate that seemed closed and that could have a direct impact on the future transfer market of Real Madrid.

The arrival of José Mourinho at the white bench marks the beginning of a second stage filled with intrigue, demands, and immediate pressure. Florentino Pérez has chosen a strong character profile to revitalize the team, but the club knows that LaLiga waits for no one and that any significant misstep can accelerate future plans.

Carlo Ancelotti gains weight after Brazil's setback

The name of Carlo Ancelotti has never completely disappeared in Valdebebas. His relationship with the president is excellent, and his legacy carries great weight: two periods, major titles, managing the dressing room, and a special connection with several figures who still hold significance within Madridismo.

Brazil had hired the Italian to pursue the sixth star, but the project suffered a severe blow by falling in the round of 16. The 2-1 defeat against Norway, with a brace from Erling Haaland, was more than just a bad result: it raised doubts about the plan, the selection of certain veterans, and the coach's ability to rebuild a national team that has not won the World Cup since 2002.

Ancelotti, for now, is not giving up. His discourse hints at a profound restructuring, with more youth, increased energy in midfield, and a revision of the competitive model. Nonetheless, the noise in Brazil is substantial, and pressure could significantly alter the scenario in the coming months.

José Mourinho conditions the future of Real Madrid

Real Madrid has entrusted the reins to José Mourinho, but the move also carries risks. The Portuguese is familiar with the house, the pressure of the Bernabéu, and the club's media dimension, although his return comes in a very different context than his first spell.

Florentino Pérez is aiming for quick results, a more aggressive squad, and a competitive team in LaLiga and Europe. If the project starts well, there will be no debate. However, if the squad does not connect with the coach or the performance falters, the club will need to have a top-level alternative ready.

The safest return for the white bench

Here again appears Carlo Ancelotti. Other names that appeal to the president have less straightforward paths: Jürgen Klopp and Zinedine Zidane are high-profile options, but their respective futures seem linked to national team projects. Therefore, the choice margin could be much narrower than it seems.

The Italian represents the opposite of vertigo. He is a coach of consensus, with calm authority, crisis experience, and the ability to manage a squad full of stars. In a club where the environment always pushes, that calmness holds immense value.

The key will lie in two benches: Brazil's and the Bernabéu's. If José Mourinho convinces, there will be no movement. However, if the season gets complicated and Canarinha decides to end the Italian's tenure prematurely, Carlo Ancelotti will once again be the most natural plan B for Real Madrid in LaLiga.
