05 May 13th Brazil Global Sports disclosed the inside story of Ancelotti, the Brazilian Football Association officially announced Ancelotti. According to the agreement, the Brazilian Football Association will announce it at the same time as Real Madrid, but because Brazilian Football Association Chairman Rodriguez was investigated, he snatched the time to officially announce Ancelotti.

In the past 24 hours, the Brazilian Football Association has made a crazy sprint, and the special working group has accelerated the signing process of Ancelotti's contract. Brazilian Football Association President Rodriguez accelerated Ancelotti's official announcement on Monday morning - a hearing in a few hours will be held in the Rio de Janeiro state court that could endanger its position as president of the Football Association. As soon as the contract was completed, the Football Association chairman immediately disclosed the agreement with the Italian coach, who had begun work for the June international match day window. The Rio State Court originally scheduled to hold a hearing to hear testimony from former Brazilian Football Association vice chairman Nunes to verify whether his signature was forged in the agreement at the beginning of this year. But earlier this afternoon, the former CBF vice-chairman's lawyer told him he was unable to appear on health reasons, resulting in the hearing being cancelled. Despite the lack of Nunes' testimony, the judiciary may still remove Rodriguez from his post at any time.

For Rodriguez, it is urgent to announce an agreement with Ancelotti. He immediately mobilized the communications department after arriving at the CBF headquarters in the early morning. With the signing confirmation of the middleman Diego Fernandez from Madrid, the official announcement turned into a race against time - it was finally released on the official website of the Football Association at 10:53, and the social media release material is still in the final production stage.

CBF did not even wait for Real Madrid's statement on the departure of the Italian coach - initially agreed that both sides should issue announcements simultaneously on Monday afternoon (Spain evening) Brasilia time. Although it has been officially announced that he will coach Brazil until the next World Cup, Ancelotti's contract with Real Madrid originally expired at the end of June 2026, and the early termination has not officially come into effect.
