"I will not be the one to ask to leave this club," Ancelotti said when questioned by the media, sending a strong message regarding his future. Far from entertaining the idea of moving on, the manager made it clear that he is fully focused on the present and committed to the goals set for the season.

Despite having been linked multiple times with national teams and other top clubs across Europe, the Italian remains firmly attached to the Madrid-based side. More than just a workplace, Ancelotti feels a deep connection to the institution, the dressing room, and above all, the fans who have embraced him since his return.

The respect he has earned, the silverware he has delivered, and his ability to manage egos and pressure have helped him build a solid relationship with the board. At 65 years of age, Ancelotti remains sharp, competitive, and eager to continue leading the team on the biggest stages.

The confidence in his leadership is mirrored by the squad, with several players often highlighting his man-management skills and calm demeanour. In a team that balances seasoned stars with promising youngsters, the Italian has found the perfect formula to keep harmony and high performance going hand in hand.

With Real Madrid still competing on all fronts, Ancelotti is not letting outside noise distract him. His full attention is on training sessions, tactics, and maintaining the winning mentality that defines the club. The upcoming months promise to be challenging, but Ancelotti thrives in exactly that kind of environment.
