Ancelotti, 61, looks set to succeed Zinedine Zidane for a second spell at the Spanish giants, having previously managed them between 2013 and 2015. The Italian signed a four-and-a-half-year contract at Everton when he succeeded Marco Silva in December 2019, but leaves after 18 months in charge. The Merseyside club finished 12th in the Premier League in 2019-20 before a 10th-place finish in Ancelotti's only full season in charge. Ancelotti has won 15 major trophies during his career and is one of only three managers to win three European Cups - along with Liverpool legend Bob Paisley and former Real boss Zidane.
