CBF extends Carlo Ancelotti's contract until 2030 | OneFootball

The Brazilian Football Confederation and coach Carlo Ancelotti have renewed their contract for another four years, through the 2030 World Cup.

Ancelotti’s continued tenure in charge of the Brazilian National Team — the most successful in world football history — reflects not only the CBF’s backing of the work carried out by the coach, but also the trust he has earned from the squad and Brazilian fans since his arrival in late May 2025.

Since taking over the role, the Italian coach has become a central figure in strengthening Brazilian football, working alongside various areas of the CBF and consolidating a relationship marked by shared identity, excellent work, and stability.

“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 go together all the way to 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.

CBF president Samir Xaud celebrated Carlo Ancelotti’s contract renewal and highlighted how the decision aligns with the organization’s sporting project for the coming years.

“Today is a historic day for the CBF and for Brazilian football. Carlo Ancelotti’s renewal represents another firm step in our commitment to providing the five-time world champion national team with an increasingly strong, modern, and competitive structure. We work every day to keep Brazil at the highest level of world football, while also paying close attention to the development of the other national teams, the competitions organized by the CBF, and the strengthening of clubs and federations throughout the country,” said Samir Xaud.

CBF vice president Gustavo Dias also echoed the importance of extending Ancelotti’s contract, emphasizing that mutual trust helped facilitate the agreement. He praised the decision.

"Ancelotti’s résumé and career speak for themselves. But beyond that, he is a fantastic human being. We are extremely satisfied with the work that has been done since his arrival. His staying on for another four years reflects confidence in a solid project, built with balance, experience, and a vision for the future. We are convinced that this continuity further strengthens the connection between the National Team, Brazilian fans, and the joy that football has always brought to our country,” said Gustavo Dias.

Ancelotti was announced as head coach of the Brazilian National Team in May 2025. In one year of work, he led the Seleção in ten matches. He recorded five wins, two draws, and three defeats. Under his command, the team scored 18 goals and conceded eight.
