In an interview with Corriere della Sera, the daughter of the Brazil coach talks about the private and public Carlo: “In the end he is a simpleton who eats badly and dresses so-so”
“I’d like to see him angry. Once, just once.” This is how her father Katia Ancelotti begins to tell in an interview given to Corriere della Sera. The daughter of the Brazil coach talks about her relationship with her father and her relationship with the world of football, starting with that reputation for being imperturbable: “My brother Davide and my husband Mino tell of crazy outbursts, a version of dad unknown to me” she reveals.

From the breakup with Gattuso after he took over from him at Napoli (“They never heard from or saw each other again. Dad was upset about it and doesn’t pretend anything happened. Rino never called him again”), to the ongoing relationship with social media (“Did he read or hear that in Naples they said he had come to get his pension? That thing there did a lot of harm to me, for example”), to Carlo as father and husband: “Carlo acted as a father and as a mother, her presence was felt in the house. Mum, who unfortunately is no longer here, was always away” says Katia who admits: “At the time I thought she was wrong, I saw her as strange. Then I understood. Independence is a value like freedom”
the criticisms of David

Katia also talks about the burden of being called Ancelotti: “For me it isn’t, my brother Davide has suffered criticism for having started coaching with his father. I think he has had more difficulty than the others, precisely because they have always pointed the finger at him. Now he coaches Botafogo alone, he is also in Brazil. It annoys me that they talk about him and not about other children who are also with their fathers who are coaches. Pioli, just to give an example.” Now he supports Brazil but Carlo is still Carlo: “As a person he remains the same as always: the simpleton who eats badly, dresses so-so, doesn’t know how to drive well and doesn’t listen to me”.
