Carlo Ancelotti has revealed how he wishes to be remembered by Real Madrid supporters as he prepares for his final LaLiga match in charge of the Spanish giants before taking over as Brazil's national team coach.

The 65-year-old Italian tactician will lead Real Madrid for the last time in Spain's top flight when they face Real Sociedad on Saturday in the final fixture of the LaLiga season.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of the weekend clash, Ancelotti expressed his desire for a simple legacy: "How Real Madrid fans should remember me? A good manager."

"Time puts everyone in their place. I know special days are coming," Ancelotti added, reflecting on his imminent departure. "I am very happy as to how I was treated."

Ancelotti leaves behind an extraordinary legacy at the Bernabeu, having established himself as the most successful manager in Real Madrid's illustrious history. During his two spells at the club, he secured five UEFA Champions League trophies, cementing his place in the club's folklore.

The Italian's departure comes as he prepares to embark on a new challenge with the Brazilian national team, where he will be tasked with preparing the Seleção for the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States.

While Ancelotti's time in the Spanish capital is drawing to a close, his impact on Real Madrid will be remembered for generations to come, having guided the club to unprecedented success on both domestic and European fronts.
