What is it like to gather the champions of the five major leagues? No one had been able to answer this question before. Now, with Real Madrid crowned the 35th league title in team history, their manager Carlo Ancelotti is the first coach in the world to reach that milestone. At the age of 62, people call "An Fat Man" has reached a height that countless coaches can't match, that is, to win the top 5 national league championships in Europe.
Speaking of Ancelotti, many people first think of the glorious era of AC Milan, indeed, from 2001 when he coached the Rossoneri, he spent the first peak of his coaching career there, and the Serie A championship and the Champions League followed, making him a world-class coach. With the rise of fame, Ancelotti has gradually moved his pace abroad to try different football in other countries.
In this way, since the summer of 2009, he has traveled all over the UK, Spain, Germany and France. Apart from a brief return to Napoli to coach, he has spent most of the past 12 years coaching overseas. Unlike many coaches who can't adapt to the foreign football system, "Fat Man" can lead the team to win the championship almost every time a new team is present, and often wins the heaviest local league championship trophy.
According to the data, Ancelotti won the Serie A, Premier League, Ligue 1 and Bundesliga titles respectively when he coached Milan (2003-04), Chelsea (2009-10), Paris (2012-13) and Bayern (2016-17), and now he has completed the last plate and become the first Grand Slam coach in the history of football to win the title in all five major leagues. Some media analysts said that his "first" may really be a record of no one before, because in the current football environment, no one can approach his achievements.
In addition, Ancelotti also won the Spanish Super Cup this season, and the Italian became the first manager in Real Madrid's history to win all six events, which are La Liga, Champions League, Copa del Rey, Spanish Super Cup, European Super Cup and Club World Cup. And that's not all, "Fat Man" has also won the Champions League three times (2 times in AC Milan and 1 time at Real Madrid), and together with Zidane and Paisley, he became the only three managers in history to win the Champions League three times. Considering that he is only 62 years old now, it may only be a matter of time before he breaks this record, for example, Real Madrid still has the possibility of winning the Champions League this season, and if the Big Ears Cup can be held high at the end of the season, 2022 will be perfect for him.
Ancelotti might say, "Success? I'm just on the road! ”
