The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) and manager Carlo Ancelotti have officially extended their partnership through the 2030 World Cup, signing a new four-year contract that solidifies the Italian tactician's long-term vision for the Seleção. This decision comes as a major vote of confidence in Ancelotti, who has quickly become a transformative figure for the most successful national team in football history.

Since taking the helm at the end of May 2025, Ancelotti has not only earned the trust of the squad and the passionate Brazilian fanbase but has also become a central pillar in revitalizing the country's football identity. His work has gone beyond the pitch, collaborating closely with various CBF departments to foster stability, professionalism, and a shared sense of purpose. "A year ago I arrived in Brazil. From the very first minute, I understood what football means to this country," Ancelotti stated. "We have been working to take the Brazilian National Team back to the top of the world. But the CBF and I want more—more victories, more time, more work. We are very happy to announce that we will continue together for another four years, until the 2030 World Cup. Thank you, Brazil, for the warm welcome and for all the affection."

CBF President Samir Xaud hailed the renewal as a historic milestone, underscoring how it aligns with the federation's ambitious sporting project. "Today is a historic day for the CBF and for Brazilian football. Carlo Ancelotti’s renewal represents another firm step in our commitment to providing the five-time world champion national team with an increasingly strong, modern, and competitive structure," Xaud said. "We work every day to keep Brazil at the highest level of world football, while also paying close attention to the development of the other national teams, the competitions organized by the CBF, and the strengthening of clubs and federations throughout the country." CBF Vice President Gustavo Dias echoed the sentiment, emphasizing the collective drive to build a lasting legacy under Ancelotti's guidance.
