Carlo Ancelotti is prepared to sign a new long-term contract with the Brazilian Football Confederation. The 66-year-old head coach of the Brazil national team has agreed to commit to a deal running until 2030, as previously reported by multiple sources.

According to transfer insider Nicolò Schira, the agreement is expected to be signed in the coming days, provided no unforeseen issues arise. Despite some mixed results, officials in Brazil are satisfied with the work of the highly respected coach and the positive atmosphere he has managed to build within the squad.

Ancelotti took charge of the five-time world champions in early June last year. At the upcoming World Cup, Brazil will face Morocco, Scotland and Haiti in the group stage.
