“Honestly, I have nothing against being a foreigner (…) what I think we have in Brazil’s trainers who can direct Seleção,” Lula told the press on a trip to China.
Fans of football, Brazil’s president has previously expressed his doubt about Ancelotti’s appointment, whose name is considered for many years as a candidate for the office.
“He has never trained Italy (…) to solve Italy’s problems, which have never participated in the last World Cup,” Lula announced in 2023.
This time Lula did not present himself as taxative and described Ancelotti as “A great technician (…), very well ready. I hope he can help the Brazil team, first qualify for the World Cup and then, if possible, to win it.”
The problem with ‘Canarinha’, according to Lula
In Lula’s opinion, Brazil’s problem is “That we have the reaping of players who are not equal to those we have” In the past. The pentacampeones of the world occupy the fourth place of the qualified league for the 2026 World Cup, but its passing of the final stage should not be dangerous since, in the absence of four days, it takes six points of the advantage in Venezuela, seventh and that will go to an international playoff.
