MADRID, 4 May. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti added this Saturday, with the conquest of LaLiga EA Sports, his twelfth title as coach of Real Madrid, which leaves him as the second most successful in the history of the club and only surpassed by Miguel Muñoz’s 14 .
Until this Saturday, the one from Reggiolo, after winning the Spanish Super Cup last January, was tied in the list of winners with Zinédine Zidane, and now he continues to make history in the Madrid team, where he has built a good record in his two stages and with whom he still has a contract until 2026.
In the first, from 2013 to 2015, he won a Champions League, a Copa del Rey, a European Super Cup and a Club World Cup, which were not enough for him to continue enjoying the trust of Florentino Pérez, president of the club.
But he once again trusted the Italian to fill the gap left by Zidane’s second departure in 2021 and in these three years he has improved his numbers by adding eight more. Good knowledge of the club, he did not need adaptation and in his first year after his return he won the League – being the first coach to win it in the five ‘big’ continental championships -, the Champions League and the Spanish Super Cup, and in the second he added the European Super Cup, the Club World Cup and the Copa del Rey, the latter for the first time since the Merengue team won it with him in 2014.
Now, in this 2023-2024 season, Ancelotti added his second League and a new Spanish Super Cup to reach a dozen titles as a Madrid coach and now only has the Spaniard Miguel Muñoz and his impressive 14 titles ahead of him – 9 Leagues, 2 Cups of Europe, 2 Cups and 1 Intercontinental Cup – on the Real Madrid bench in 14 seasons, from 1960 to 1974.
The Madrid coach is the one who has led the white team for the most consecutive seasons in its history, but the coach from Reggiolo could cut him even further this season if Real Madrid eliminates Bayern next Wednesday and qualifies for a new Champions League final.
In any case, Muñoz’s record seems within Ancelotti’s reach if he fulfills his new contract until 2026, which would make him, with five consecutive seasons on the bench, the coach who has lasted the longest consecutive season in office after the Madrid native. for a total of seven.
A ‘strange’ trend in the capital club that since Miguel Muñoz had never had a coach for more than three seasons, which until now had been the longest that both Vicente del Bosque and the Portuguese José Mourinho lasted.
