Ancelotti open to renewing contract at Real Madrid if offered a new deal in 2024
Even as Real Madrid begin preparations for the season ahead, the future of Carlo Ancelotti has become a hot topic.
The Italian mastermind has been long linked with a move to Brazil, with the CBF formally approaching the coach multiple times. It is widely believed that Ancelotti will join the Brazilian national team next year, when his contract at Real Madrid comes to an end.
However, in an update from Diario AS (h/t UOL), Ancelotti has rejected a fresh offer from Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund. It appears he does not have any intention to coach in Saudi Arabia, even as multiple European stars scurry to the oil-rich nation for deep riches.
The report also points out that Ancelotti is open to renewing his contract at Santiago Bernabeu if Real Madrid approach him with a fresh offer.
CBF, meanwhile, has indicated their interest in signing Ancelotti, but the Real Madrid boss is yet to sign a contract. This is indicative of the fact that the Italian is indeed keen on continuing his spell at the Bernabeu.
During his second spell at Bernabeu so far, Ancelotti has notably led Real Madrid to Copa Del Rey, Champions League, and La Liga titles. However, the club’s poor performance last season led to massive scrutiny over his future in the Spanish capital.
Despite this, the Real Madrid bosses have continued to back Ancelotti ahead of the new season. But one would expect the club to take a solid decision next year, especially as they look to bring in Kylian Mbappe from Paris Saint-Germain.
While Ancelotti is open to renewing his contract, Real Madrid are unlikely to offer any proposal unless the club end up having an extraordinary 2023/24 campaign.

Manchester United launch final push to sign Real Madrid outcast; club resists permanent exit
Manchester United are stepping up their pursuit of Endrick as the Brazilian forward’s future at Real Madrid becomes increasingly uncertain, with a potential January loan move emerging as a solution to his lack of regular playing time.
According to Bernabeu Digital, Manchester United are making a final push to convince the 19-year-old to join them.
However, negotiations could prove complicated because the Premier League club is interested in including a purchase option in the deal, while Real Madrid are not currently planning to give up permanent control of the striker.
Endrick’s limited opportunities under Jose Mourinho this season have opened the door to a temporary departure, with AC Milan and Tottenham also emerging as potential destinations.
Why Manchester United want Endrick?
Manchester United are looking for greater attacking productivity and believe Endrick could provide a different dimension to their forward line.
The Premier League club has also been linked with the Brazilian in the past, as they assess options to improve their goalscoring output after a poor start to the season.
Notably, his situation at Real Madrid makes a move more plausible, as Endrick has struggled to secure consistent minutes, and the club is considering a loan that would give him the chance to play regularly.
However, United’s preferred terms could become the biggest obstacle.
The English side reportedly wants the option to buy Endrick at the end of the loan, potentially giving them a route to a permanent transfer if he impresses.
Real Madrid reject permanent Endrick exit
Real Madrid’s preference is understood to be a straightforward loan without a purchase option.
The club want Endrick to gain experience elsewhere before returning to compete for a place in the squad, rather than risk losing a young forward they have invested in for the future.
His previous loan spell at Lyon provides a possible model for another temporary move, although any agreement would depend on the terms offered and the player’s own preferences.
Manchester United are prepared to make an attractive financial proposal in an effort to secure his arrival, but money alone may not resolve the disagreement if Real Madrid remain unwilling to include a purchase clause.
