Real Madrid coach Ancelotti reveals retirement plan

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti admits this job could be his last.

Ancelotti has just celebrated winning the LaLiga title with Real.

"After Real Madrid, yes, I'll probably retire then," the Italian said, "if the club wants me to stay for ten years, I'll be a coach for ten years. But I would like to be with my grandchildren, go on vacation with my wife.

"There are so many things I've put off that I'd like to do."

However, Ancelotti leaves a back door open: “Yes, there would be a national team, but that is premature now. Certainly not for this World Cup. For the 2026 World Cup, why not, it could be."

When asked if that could be Canada, his wife's home country, Ancelotti replies, "Why not, I would love it of course. Canada did very well."
