Carlo Ancelotti said on Tuesday he was proud of the legacy he had built in four mostly successful years in his second tenure at Real Madrid and will only have good memories as he heads to Brazil to take over the five-times world champions.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti says he has "never had a problem" with the club and does not want to "make a big deal" out of his impending departure for the Brazil national team.

Carlo Ancelotti said there's "no need for drama" around his departure from Real Madrid, insisting he remains "totally focused" but admitting the team might need "fresh impetus" after confirming that he'll leave to take charge of Brazil.
