Botafogo sack manager Paiva after Club World Cup exit
SAO POALO: Botafogo have sacked manager Renato Paiva following their Club World Cup exit, the Brazilian club said, despite his side beating Champions League winners Paris St. Germain earlier in the competition. Paiva's team went out at the last 16 stage with a 1-0 loss after extra-time to fellow-Brazilian club Palmeiras, and the manager has paid the price after just four months in charge. Botafogo grabbed the spotlight at the Club World Cup when they beat PSG 1-0 in the group stage, having earlier defeated Seattle Sounders, and they advanced as Group B runners-up despite a 1-0 defeat by Atletico Madrid. 'The Club thanks Paiva and his assistants for their services to Botafogo over the last few months,' a club statement on social media said. 'Particularly for the historic victory against Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup and the qualification for the round of 16 of the (Copa) Libertadores and Copa do Brasil.' Paiva said he was shocked by the club's decision. 'I don't want to talk at the moment, there will be time for that. All I can say is that I'm shocked, and the staff and players are open-mouthed about the decision,' he told Globo Esporte.

Ancelotti's move to Brazil collapses amid Real Madrid intervention- report
Not more than 12 hours ago, it was almost given that Carlo Ancelotti would join Brazil this summer. However, reports this morning suggest Ancelotti's proposed move to Brazil has broken down in a surprise turn of events. Brazil move ruled out for Ancelotti According to Globo Esporte, the Brazilian football federation has ended negotiations with Ancelotti in the wake of an intervention from Real Madrid. Advertisement The report adds that Real Madrid's board of directors played hardball during Ancelotti's negotiations with Brazil. They notably refused to pay the termination fee in the Italian's contract, which doesn't expire until 2026. Ancelotti is likely to leave Real Madrid at the end of the season, one year prior to the expiry of his contract. Brazil move now off the table for Anceloti (Photo by) Because of this reason, the Italian wanted Real Madrid to pay the termination fee as the club were not respecting the terms of the contract. However, upon learning that CBF has an agreement in place with Ancelotti, Florentino Perez and team decided against paying a termination fee. Advertisement This means any agreement between the CBF and Ancelotti cannot be made now, which doesn't bode well for Brazil as they would require a new coach as soon as possible. As a result, it appears Jorge Jesus is all set to become the next Brazil coach. The Portuguese tactician is currently on the verge of leaving Al Hilal. Jesus was always an option for Brazil but the federation had prioritised a move for Ancelotti due to his vast experience and a track record of winning big tournaments. But with the Brazil move ruled out, it will be interesting to see what the future has in store for the experienced Italian.
