Manchester City goalkeeper, Ederson has claimed there is a “big possibility” that Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti will take over the Brazil national team.
Ederson also admitted he wants the LaLiga champions to be eliminated from the Champions League, so that Ancelotti can come to the Selecao “as quickly as possible.”
Ancelotti is under contract in Madrid until the end of next season.
Recently, Brazil’s confederation was forced to deny it had reached a deal with the 63-year-old Italian.
However, Brazil’s national team players seem confident that Ancelotti could be their next coach.
“I was discussing this with Casemiro, Vinicius Junior, [Eder] Militão.
“There is a big possibility that he comes,” Ederson said in a press conference on Tuesday.
The South Americans have been without a head coach since Tite’s six-and-a-half-year tenure ended after they were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the World Cup in December.
