"Sky": C. Ancelotti agrees to work with the Italian national team

„Sky Sport Italia” reports that the Italian Football Federation is close to reaching an agreement with Carlo Ancelotti.

The Italian national team is without a head coach after Giampiero Ventura was sacked from his duties following a failed World Cup qualifying campaign.

There are many candidates to replace him, but the most realistic candidates have always been Carlo Ancelotti, Antonio Conte, and Roberto Mancini.

It is said that the Federation president met with C. Ancelotti yesterday at a hotel to discuss the offer. A decision has not yet been made, but it is believed that the strategist will accept and become the head coach of the national team.

C. Ancelotti will receive a yearly salary of 5 million euros. According to reports, the Italian will also invite one of his former protégés - either Andrea Pirlo or Massimo Ambrosini - to join his coaching staff.
