The news was widely awaited with Madrid seemingly directing to a season without a trophy The defeat of Clasico 4-3 yesterday in Barcelona.
Barca, who also defeated Madrid in the final of the King Cup, is now seven clear points with only three games. Ancelotti was also helpless to prevent the title holders from surrendering their crown to Arsenal in the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
Awesome Legacy
The 64-year-old Italian will leave Santiago Bernabeu as one of the club’s most successful directors after having brought them to 15 important trophies, including three crowns in the Champions League.
This season has been a significant disappointment, however. Kylian Mbapping’s signature last summer meant that he completed an impressive squad and helping them to keep their rule over Barcelona, which they enjoyed in 2023-24.
However, Barça have become stronger with the lamina Yamal growing prominent, while things did not click on the way Ancelotti would have wanted in the capital. They have been full of defense injuries: Dani Carvajal and Eder Militao, both injuries that suffered the season at the beginning, while the midfield needed a renewal due to the retirement of Toni Kroos and the advanced years of Luka Modric.
Madrid has looked at regular intervals and Barcelona has regained its superiority.

He will start working with Selecao immediately after leaving Spain, which means he will be responsible for the June qualifiers against Ecuador and Paraguay.
Ancelotti replaces Dorival Junior, who was sacked in March.
“Bringing Carlo Ancelotti to Brazil is more than a strategic measure,” said Ednaldo Rodrigues, president of the CBF.
