How Rangers-linked Ancelotti made Man Utd star return to Brazil fold
Rangers were linked this week with a move for the Real Madrid No.2, who is expected to be part of his father Carlo's coaching team for Brazil's two World Cup qualifiers next month.

Read more: But he's revealed that a chat with both Ancelotti junior and his father convinced him he is ready to return to the international fold. Casemiro said: "I've had contact with Carlo but the first person I spoke to was Davide Ancelotti because I have great affection for him. "Without a doubt, Carlo's appointment is fantastic for Brazil because of his greatness. "When you appoint a manager as good as him, it increases Brazil's chances of winning the World Cup, of course it does. "So I would love to return to the national team and play for him again. "My only regret is that he wasn't appointed sooner because he doesn't have a lot of time before the World Cup next year. "Brazil needed a big name like that, someone with respect and stature. And Carlo Ancelotti is exceptional."

"Wanting what belongs to someone else, wanting to live the life of someone who trusted you, is a reflection of an empty heart, incapable of creating its own happiness." Former Porto and Zenit man Hulk is still playing professionally, racking up more than 120 goals for Atletico Mineiro since signing in 2021. He earned 49 caps for Brazil, finding the net 11 times.
