According to reports, the new technical director of the Italian Football Federation, Maldini, revealed on Tuesday that they had consulted with Ancelotti, but the consultation took place about two weeks ago, shortly after the Brazil national team was eliminated by Norway in the World Cup.

Italy wanted to understand Ancelotti's plans and the amount of compensation that might be required if he terminated his contract. Ancelotti was friendly and thanked Italy for the contact, but at the same time stated that he had no intention of leaving Brazil.

It is worth noting that two months ago, Ancelotti renewed his four-year contract with the Brazilian Football Confederation. Ancelotti is currently on vacation in Canada and is expected to return to Brazil in August to begin preparations for the new season. In September, he will lead the national team in two friendly matches against Australia.
