It’s official. The Brazilian Football Confederation and coach Carlo Ancelotti have renewed his contract for another four years, until the 2030 World Cup. 

The “Canarinha” announced it in the lead-up to the World Cup and just 10 matches (five wins, two draws, and three defeats) after his arrival on the bench of the Brazil national team.

“The continuity of Ancelotti as Brazil’s national team coach —the most successful team in the history of world football— reflects not only the CBF’s support for the work carried out by the coach, but also the confidence he has earned from the squad and Brazilian fans since his arrival at the end of May 2025,” can be read in the CBF statement.

Just one year after his arrival, Ancelotti renews. “I arrived in Brazil a year ago. From the very first minute, I understood what football means to this country. For a year, we have worked to return the Brazilian National Team to the top of the world. But the CBF and I want more. More victories, more time, more work. We are pleased to announce that we will continue together for another four years. We will stay together until the 2030 World Cup. I want to thank the CBF for its trust. Thank you, Brazil, for the warm welcome and for all the affection,” declared the former Real Madrid coach.

Therefore, Ancelotti will continue coaching until he is at least 70 years old and will be present, in addition to the World Cup that begins in a month, at the next Copa América and at the 2023 World Cup to be held, among other countries, in Spain.

“Today is a historic day for the CBF and for Brazilian football. The renewal of Carlo Ancelotti’s contract represents another step in our commitment to providing the five-time world champion national team with an increasingly solid, modern, and competitive structure. We work every day to keep Brazil at the highest level of world football, paying special attention to the development of other national teams, the competitions organized by the CBF, and the strengthening of clubs and federations throughout the country,” said Samir Xaud, president of the Brazilian Football Confederation.
