The coach who made history with Milan confessed which club he is a fan of
Carlo Ancelotti is a living Milan legend. The historic 64-year-old coach had the luxury of winning 2 Champions Leagues during his time as a footballer. He repeated this achievement when it was his turn to take charge of the team and won a final against Boca Juniors in the Club World Cup. One of the most successful in the Rossonero has absolute esteem among the fans, but at the end of the year a striking statement went viral that caused a lot of stir in Italy.
The current leader of Real Madrid was present on the Universo Valdano program hosted by former footballer Jorge Valdano to discuss each step of his career and, at one point in the talk, he revealed that he is a fan of Milan’s classic rival: “I When he was little he was an Inter fan. And, having been at Milan, which is the rival, that sympathy still survives.”
Despite this affection for the Neroazzurro, the driver never had the privilege of wearing that shirt, but those words were enough to provoke a revolution on social networks. “Inter closes 2023 by winning the ‘Ancelotti Trophy’. And they celebrate it quite a bit. Congratulations to the cousins,” wrote one of the users. Another person added: “Ancelotti, Sacchi, Pioli, Inter fans. “All the most successful and competent coaches in Milan’s history are Inter fans.” “Carlo Ancelotti, supposed idol of Milan, how well the Neroazzurra suits him,” declared one fan.
As a player, Carlo Ancelotti wore the Parma and Roma shirts until arriving at Milan in 1987 to face the last years of his career until his retirement announced in 1992. In those five years, he won six international championships (2 European Champions Cups , 2 European Super Cups and 2 Intercontinental Cups) and three national trophies (2 Serie A and 1 Italian Super Cup).

When he hung up his boots, he had to tour the locker rooms of Reggiana, Parma and Juventus before returning to the institution where he made history. In 2001, he signed with Milan until he left in mid-2009. During that period, he won eight titles: 2 Champions League, 2 European Super Cups, 1 Club World Cup, 1 Serie A, 1 Italian Cup and 1 Italian Super Cup. . He is tied with Arrigo Sacchi as Milan’s third winningest coach, behind Nereo Rocco (9) and Fabio Capello (10).
Beyond Carleto’s closeness to Inter, the driver has a positive record with the institution for which he supports. Between his stages as a player and coach, he recorded 27 wins, 9 draws and 15 losses in 51 duels played.
On the other hand, Carlo Ancelotti detailed other issues linked to the talks he had with Silvio Berlusconi as president of Milan in his role as technical director: “I had a very good relationship. He has beaten me. He asked me why I made decisions. He liked to talk about football. As a coach, he always beat me a lot when things were good, never when things were bad. He knew how to choose very well when he told you: ‘No, you have to play with three forwards.’ I told him that here he is a forward and he told me: ‘No, he is not a forward, ha’. If he put Andriy Shevchenko and Kaka, he told me: ‘No, you have to put Andriy Shevchenko, Inzaghi and Kaka.’ There is a legend that Berlusconi made the lineup for me. I have not had a president who gave me a player.”
Later, he went back in time to remember his turbulent stay at Juventus, where it was difficult for him to enter the heart of the Bianconero due to his past in Rome and the Rossonero: “They hated me at Juventus. Sometimes, he had to leave training with the Police. “Too unpleasant.”
Lastly, he praised the final won with Real Madrid against Diego Cholo Simeone’s Atlético Madrid for the 2013/14 Champions League with a goal in the 93rd minute that extended the definition won by Merengue to overtime: “If I am here today It’s because Sergio Ramos scored that goal. I am full of pride for coaching Real Madrid. “It is something special, as it was to train with Milan.”
