with Ancelotti away, CBF thinks about alternatives

The Brazilian National Team still does not have a coach for the next World Cup cycle, and despite still waiting for Carlo Ancelottiwhich has a contract with the Real Madrid, the CBF is already thinking about other options. Among the three favorites are two Portuguese and one Brazilian, with one of the foreigners working in the country.

The first and perhaps main target if the Italian does not accept to take over the team is Fernando Diniz. The president of the entity, Ednaldo Rodrigues is fond of football Fluminensewho is currently coached by the professional, and enters the characteristic of offensive football sought by the manager.

Another option that responds to offensive football is Jorge Jesuswhich also pleases Ednaldo, but when probing references to Portuguese in the Flamengo, a club that coached between 2019 and 2020, no positive things have been heard in terms of commitment. It is worth remembering that Rubro-Negro tried to bring the professional back last week.

The other quoted is the professional who has been accumulating titles in Brazil since arriving, at the end of 2020, Abel Ferreira. Two and a half years in office, it is feared by the difficulty of convincing him to leave Palmeiras. Despite this, his temper, which was a problem before, is now no longer a concern.

It is important to emphasize that Ancelotti remains the favorite, and the CBF will wait for him until the end of the European season. Even so, his internal and even public responses have not been encouraging, as he has declared that he intends to stay at Real Madrid until the end of his contract, in the middle of 2024.
