Carlo Ancelotti is one of the world’s most successful coaches.
And when he gets the chance to field his dream eleven, it will be spectacular.
Because here it is teeming with superstars in all positions – and a Swede in fact.

There are few coaches in the world who can match Italian Carlo Ancelotti’s incredible track record. He is the coach who has won the Champions League the most times and he is the only one in world history to win league titles in the five biggest leagues in Europe.

It all started in Reggiana and then quickly moved on to Parma who were a fantastic team at the end of the 90s. After that, the big clubs started to hear from the man known as “Don Carlo” when first Juventus and then Milan hired him.
