The 61-year-old Italian completed a surprise return to the Spanish giants on Tuesday, just days after it was reported that he was being considered as Zinedine Zidane's replacement by Florentino Perez.
ESPN reported earlier this week that captain and centre-back Sergio Ramos could be gearing up for an exit, with Manchester City said to be preparing a two-year contract offer for the 35-year-old, who was left out of Spain's 2020 UEFA European Championship squad.
The veteran enjoyed a fruitful relationship with Ancelotti between 2013 and 2015, but has not yet signed a new contract with the 13-time UEFA Champions League winners.
Experienced left-back Marcelo could also be let go by the Spanish giants, having seemingly lost his importance in the side over the past two seasons.
In the 2020/21 campaign, the Brazilian fullback made just 19 appearances across all competitions, assisting only four goals.
Reports in Europe suggest that Ramos' centre-back partner Raphael Varane is on Manchester United's transfer shortlist, though his future in Spain might depend on Ancelotti's stance.
