It took longer than expected but Real Madrid have finally unveiled Carlo Ancelotti as their new manager.
After negotiating with PSG for what feels like for ages, the Italian has been confirmed as Jose Mourinho’s successor at the Bernabeu.
Laurent Blanc is to take over the reigns in Paris as Ancelotti will look to his glittering trophy haul in Spain. Already a two-time Champions League winner with AC Milan, he has enjoyed subsequent success with Chelsea and more recently in France.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez issues a statement yesterday saying they were waiting on PSG to tie up an agreement with Blanc before they could announce the new signing and that has arrived today.
Let the even more intense transfer speculation surrounding the club begin.
