"He called me seven times". Legendary coach on relationship with Ancelotti

Real Madrid’s next match will be a sentimental one for Carlo Ancelotti, as they face AC Milan in the Champions League—a club that holds a special place in the coach’s heart. Ancelotti has not forgotten his time with the "Rossoneri" and often turns to club legends for advice during difficult times.

Details: Former Milan coach Arrigo Sacchi shared that Ancelotti reached out to him after El Clásico, making several calls to discuss the game.

Quote: "Carlo is a wonderful person; he called me at least seven times in the past few days. He's smart and humble—qualities that always go hand in hand. He was the first player I asked Berlusconi about, though he had doubts. I had just joined Milan and was fifth in the league, and Carletto's knees weren't the most reliable. I told him right away that with him, we would win the championship," Sacchi shared in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.

Reminder: Recently, it was reported that Real Madrid’s management has started to express dissatisfaction with Ancelotti's performance.
