Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti and Brazil seemed like the perfect triangle of convenience until this week, when negotiations reportedly hit the rocks between the Italian and the Selecao. However from the Spanish capital at least, the word is that Ancelotti will be allowed to move to the Brazilian national team.
With Ancelotti all but out at Real Madrid, and Brazil desperate to bring Ancelotti in, it seemed a foregone conclusion that the deal would get done this month. However on Tuesday news emerged that negotiations had broken down, with differing versions emerging between Los Blancos, Ancelotti and Brazil.
