Bayern Munich boss Carlo Ancelotti is delighted for Zinedine Zidane over his success at Real Madrid.

The Frenchman has done so well that, over the course of 2016, he set a record of least amount of defeats in a calendar year.

"He has proclaimed himself world champion after winning the Champions League and some believed he was not going to be a coach," Ancelotti said to Gazzetta Dello Sport.

Ancelotti was also asked about working with Cristiano Ronaldo.

"He is a phenomenon, an incredible professional who lives for football and is giving a lot," he continued.

"When he is playing at his maximum level, he can do what he wants and stopping him is very difficult."
