The Champions League
A decade without Europe’s most prestigious prize makes it top priority for every Real Madrid boss if they need to stay in the favor of the trigger-happy Florentino Perez. Having come agonizingly close in the past three years, Real Madrid would be hoping to go one step beyond and reach the finals.
Ancelloti is himself no stranger to Champions League finals, having been there many a time and tasted success twice with AC Milan.Among many more, these are the glaring challenges that face “Carletto” as he embarks on his Spanish adventure. Known to be a manager who gives importance to player-manager relationship and a proven strategist, this should be right up his street. The Real Madrid job has been considered the “poisoned chalice” by many, but Carlo Ancelotti seems the right candidate for the job and here’s wishing him a happy tenure at Real Madrid.
