It is curious that in recent years, a club like the real Madridso winning, has been with a shredder of coaches on the bench: Mourinho, Ancelotti, Benitez, Zidane, Lopetegui, Solari, Zidane again, Ancelotti again…
However, the Italian has achieved this second stage in the real Madrid something that had not happened for 50 years, which is to remain in office for more than three seasons. In fact, the last person who did so was Miguel Munozwhich equaled in titles (14) with the latter European Super Cup and who was on the bench for 14 years, breaking all records.
So, at the start of this fourth season in which Ancelotti also has one of the best teams in recent years, the Italian aims to leave his mark on Real Madrid even deeper and become a legend. He does not want to say for sure yet and is content to say that he is a “honor and a privilege” coaching the white team, but the truth is that surviving the guillotine that Florentino Pérez’s management sometimes is is an achievement.
More than a manager
And all this, contrary to popular opinion, is achieved by being something more than a good manager, which is what Carletto has always been expected to be and which is already starting to fall short for him because if you are not good with the board (last year he demonstrated this by changing to his 4-4-2) there is nothing you can do in modern football.

So, this season will be the one that confirms him as a Real Madrid legend and who knows if it will be his last or just one more of those to come.
