The Brazilian Football Association (CBF) have given Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti a deadline to make a decision on his future.
The Italian tactician's contract with Los Blancos expires in 2024 but there have been reports about a possible departure after a disappointing LaLiga campaign.

The Brazil national side are said to be keen on hiring Ancelotti to replace Tite who resigned after the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
While there remains a doubt over Ancelotti's future, the Brazilian FA have reportedly set their deadline for 25 May 2022, according to Marca.
The FA feel Ancelotti will have more clarity on his future by then, with Copa del Rey final and UEFA Champions League semi-finals set to play a part.
However, CBF president CBF President Ednaldo Rodrigues will still give Ancelotti time before moving on to their next candidate.
"Before going to plan B, I want to exhaust all the possibilities of plan A. We have a commitment to society and we must listen to the clamour, which also guide us," he said, as per Marca.
