Luis Enrique refuses to wish Ancelotti well with Brazil

Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique praised Carlo Ancelotti as "a remarkable figure on and off the pitch" but stopped short of sending good wishes to the Italian in his upcoming role with Brazil.

"I'm not going to wish him success, because I want my national team to have the most success," Luis Enrique said, ahead of PSG's final league match against Auxerre.

"But I think it's good that an Italian can coach Brazil. It's a positive combination," he added.

The PSG manager, however, had warm words for Ancelotti, who will leave Real Madrid for the Brazil job. "No one else has had a career like Carlo Ancelotti. He's a truly outstanding person both on and off the field," he said.
