Carlo Ancelotti is by far the most decorated manager, who's currently without a job

Four league titles, all in TOP 5 European leagues, three Champions League wins and over ten cup wins combined, from his stints in different nations, Carlo Ancelotti is, by far, the most decorated manager in football, who is currently unemployed. He, honestly, doesn't need much of an introduction

The Italian hasn't had to apply for jobs for a while now, teams simply come to him and not just teams. We're talking about top European clubs. He'll certainly be the first name to be linked with the post, if there's an opening at any of the bigger sides in the near future.

Ancelotti had some tough times during his only full season in charge of Bayern, but still delivered the Bundesliga title and added two German Super Cups as a bonus. The Champions League campaign ended in disappointment, but there's no shame in losing to Real Madrid, and it happened only after extra time in the quarter-finals.

The sacking at the start of this season will likely only give the 58-year-old further motivation to achieve more, even though he's done it all already.

Ancelotti's current managerial record reads 1030 games, 607 wins, 1917 goals scored and 890 conceded. His winning percentage is at 58.93.

It's worth noting that Sir Alex Ferguson, who's widely regarded as one of the most successful football managers in the modern era, ended his career with a win percentage of 58.1.
