On the eve of the Real-Barça Clasico in the final of the Spanish Super Cup, Carlo Ancelotti paid tribute to Zinedine Zidane, whom he could join in the list of the most successful coaches in the history of the Madrid club.

One legend can join another. In the event of victory against Barça this Sunday in the final of the Spanish Super Cup (8 p.m.), Carlo Ancelotti will join Zinedine Zidane on the second step of the podium of the most successful coaches in the history of Real.

“Zidane has given me a lot”

With his 10 trophies, the 64-year-old Italian is currently ahead of the former captain of the Blues (51), who managed to win 11 during his two stints on the Madrid bench (2016-2018 and 2019-2021), including three Champions Leagues. The record holder remains the Spaniard Miguel Muñoz and his 14 titles obtained at the helm of Real between 1959 and 1974.

“I am very happy and satisfied to win titles. But the most important thing is what happens the next day, not what happened. I always think about the future. And from Thursday we will have another match. You remember from time to time what you have won, your titles, but the important thing is to continue. My mentality is to look forward, whatever happens.” underlined Ancelotti this Saturday at a press conference, before paying a very nice tribute to Zidane.

“He was the best player I saw in training. He did incredible things. And then he brought me a lot here as an assistant, because he knew the club very well. He gave me helped me with the French and also to adapt to Spanish culture. He was a great help to me,” insisted Ancelotti, who had Zidane under his command at Juventus, before having him at his side during his first term at Real.
