His departure comes in the wake of a disappointing loss to Barcelona, a result that ended the club’s title hopes and seemingly marked the end of his tenure.
During his two spells in charge, Ancelotti guided the Spanish giants to an unprecedented 15 major trophies, including 3 UEFA Champions League titles, 3 UEFA Super Cups, 2 La Liga championships, 2 Copa del Rey wins, 2 Supercopa de España, 2 FIFA Club World Cups, and 1 Intercontinental Cup.
Known for his calm leadership and tactical brilliance, Ancelotti’s impact extended far beyond the pitch. He successfully bridged generations of talent, earning respect from dressing rooms and boardrooms alike.
As he steps away from the Bernabéu, Ancelotti leaves not just as a winner, but as a true legend of the game—one who delivered greatness with grace and left Real Madrid stronger than he found it.
