The highly-rated Italian coach will officially depart the La Liga heavyweights after the final league match of the season against Real Sociedad
Davide Ancelotti has left Real Madrid fans in an emotional state after announcing he will leave the club to start a “new phase” in his coaching career amid heightened speculation over a possible move to Rangers.
The highly-rated Italian coach will officially depart the La Liga heavyweights after the final league match of the season against Real Sociedad this weekend along with his father Carlo, who will take charge of the Brazil National Team this summer.
He's one of the Ibrox side’s options being seriously considered along with Liverpool hero Steven Gerrard, but it’s expected Ancelotti will have multiple offers as he looks to forge a career in the dugout in his own right.
Ahead of Los Blancos final league game of the season, Ancelotti posted a heartfelt farewell message on his new Instagram account to announce his impending exit and bid farewell to supporters.
