Ancelotti's Low-Key Debut: First Brazilian Training Session Observed

Ancelotti's First Brazilian Training Session: A Low-Key Debut Brazil's new national team coach, Carlo Ancelotti, held his first training session on June 2, 2025, at the Corinthians training center in Brazil. The session, open to the press for only 15 minutes, offered a glimpse into Ancelotti's coaching style. Reporter Monique Danelo observed that Ancelotti adopted a more observational role, spending much of the time watching rather than actively instructing. "He observed more than he participated," Danelo noted. The session also marked the return of key players Casemiro and Antony. Ancelotti held brief, private conversations with Richarlison, who is back with the national team, and Raphinha, who is currently suspended for the upcoming match. While Ancelotti's low-key approach may have surprised some, it adds intrigue to his tenure as Brazil's coach. The session ended with a sense of anticipation for future matches and the coaching style Ancelotti will bring to the team.
