Ederson believes there is 'a great possibility' of Ancelotti in Brazil

Ederson believes there is "a great possibility" that Carlo Ancelotti will take over as Brazil's next coach.

Real Madrid coach Ancelotti has been tipped as a candidate to succeed Tite, who stepped down as planned following Brazil's World Cup quarter-final defeat by Croatia.

Ancelotti has a contract with Real Madrid until the end of next season, while the Brazilian Football Confederation last month denied an agreement with the Italian.

However, speaking at a conference ahead of Brazil's friendly against Qatar 2022 semi-finalists Morocco, Ederson said he would not be surprised to see Ancelotti take charge.

"I was discussing it with Casemiro, Vinicius Junior, [Eder] Militão. There is a big possibility that he will come," said Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson.
