On the eve of the World Cup, the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) renewed head coach Carlo Ancelotti’s contract. From now on, the manager’s new deal will run through the 2030 World Cup.
“A year ago, I arrived in Brazil. From the very first minute, I understood what football means to this country. For the past year, we have been working to take the Brazilian National Team back to the top of the world. But the CBF and I want more. More victories, more time, more work. We are very happy to announce that we will continue together for another four years. We will stay together through the 2030 World Cup. I want to thank the CBF for its trust. Thank you, Brazil, for the warm welcome and for all the affection,” said Ancelotti.
With his contract renewed, Ancelotti will announce the final squad list for the 2026 World Cup this Monday (18). The expectation is that at least three Flamengo players will be included in the final squad.
Ancelotti has already revealed that Danilo will be at the World Cup. In addition, Alex Sandro and Léo Pereira have a great chance of being called up to the Brazilian National Team. Finally, Pedro is an outside shot, but he is still holding on to the dream of being called up by the Italian coach.
Meanwhile, Flamengo is preparing for its next commitment of the season. This Thursday (14), the Rubro-Negro faces Vitória again at 9:30 p.m. (Brasília time) at Barradão, in the second leg of the fifth round of the Copa do Brasil.
So, as tradition dictates, Coluna do Fla will bring all the details of the match between Flamengo and Vitória through YouTube, the website, and social media. However, Sportv (pay TV) and Premiere (pay-per-view) will broadcast the Copa do Brasil match.
