The emissary of the Football Federation in Brazil, Diego Fernandes, was seen on Saturday evening in Seville, in the stands, at the final of the King Cup, El classico between Barcelona and Real Madrid.
He came to try to complete the move of Carlo Ancelotti, the coach of the Real, to Brazil, and propose to him to arrive as soon as possible at the helm of the national.
Diego Fernandes, an impresario and a person of maximum confidence of the president of the Brazilian Federation, came again to a match of Real, after he was lived live on Santiago Bernabeu at the Real Madrid – Arsenal match, according to relevo.com
Carlo Ancelotti again in Brazil's attention
If nothing will intervene in the next period, Carlo Ancelotti is getting closer to becoming Brazil's new coach.
Diego Fernandes, the emissary of the Brazilian Football Federation (CBF) and the interlocutor of the Italian trainer in recent months, is in Sevilla to meet again with the Real technician, to try to complete the operation, which has two possible scenarios: in May or after June 30, writes the source.
The Brazilian businessman, accompanied by a few friends and family members, flew to Spain on Friday to attend the King's Cup final and, above all, to meet with Ancelottias he did last week, when he was present at the Champions League match played on Santiago Bernabeu. Then he had lunch the next day with the coach, where they wore a round of negotiations on taking over the Brazilian national.
Fernandes acts as an external connection of the CBF Presidency, so that, through these meetings, Acelotti never violated his word when he repeatedly insisted, in the press conferences he supported, that he has not been seen and did not meet with any official of Brazil so far for negotiations.

Real Madrid's coach has always maintained the connection with the Brazilian Federation through this emissary and according to sources close to negotiation, it is expected to meet again after the King's Cup final, to finalize the discussions through video conference.
Although the agreement is Total and Brazil offers a long -term contract and very similar to the one that Carlo has today, for now the two parties have not officially signed.
According to the source quoted above, the goal of Diego Fernandes's visit to Sevilla this weekend is to try to convince Acelotti to join Brazil as soon as possible.
The next list of players for the future action of Brazil will be made public in May and Brazilians hope that it will already carry Ancelotti's imprint, while the following official national matches are scheduled on June 4, in Ecuador, and June 9, at home, against Paraguay, within the eliminatory phase for the World Cup 2026
