The President of Brazil, Lula da Silva, made an unexpected request to Carlo Ancelotti, the current head coach of the Brazilian national team, during a meeting with FIFA President Gianni Infantino. The meeting took place as part of the preparations for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2027, scheduled to be held from June 24 to July 25 in eight Brazilian cities with 32 teams participating.
There, Lula made a strange request that drew laughter from the former Real Madrid coach.
"After you finish your contract with the Brazilian national team, please coach Corinthians," said the politician.
