Real Madrid manager Ancelotti named Coach of the Year by IFFHS

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has been declared World Club Coach of the Year 2022 by the IFFHS.

The Italian coach dominated the rankings thanks to a superb season in which he won LaLiga, the Champions League and the European Super Cup. Ancelotti scored 245 points, 200 more than the second-ranked Pep Guardiola, who has won the award only twice.

Walid Regragui, who was third in the ranking of the world's best national team coaches, completed the podium with a third-place spot for the World's best club coach in 2022 with CAF Champions League winners Wydad Casablanca.

It is the first time in the history of the IFFHS awards that a coach has reached the podium for both coaching categories in the same year.
