Ancelotti is a 'great manager' with a 'clear idea' of football, says Brazil's Alisson

Brazil's starting goalkeeper, Alisson Becker, has praised coach Carlo Ancelotti, defining him as a "great manager" possessing a "simple, clear, and objective" approach to football that aligns well with the Brazilian team's style. Alisson highlighted that Ancelotti's presence since May 2025 has significantly improved the team's environment.

"Since Ancelotti's arrival, the atmosphere has transformed. He is a person with a very strong presence and gives us tranquility. He has made us focus on the work and not on controversies," the Liverpool goalkeeper stated during a press conference at the team's training camp in Basking Ridge, New Jersey. Alisson also characterized 'Carletto' as a "resilient and humble" coach, adept at choosing the right words at the opportune moment.

Consigo ver su alegría y agradecimiento por comandar la selección brasileña y nosotros lo percibimos. Ganó todo y está aquí con alegría y entusiasmo

Alisson believes Ancelotti's enthusiasm for managing the Brazilian national team is palpable. "I can see his joy and gratitude for leading the Brazilian national team, and we perceive it. He has won everything and is here with joy and enthusiasm," he added, noting that the role might carry "more pressure than that of the president of the country."

Looking ahead to Brazil's World Cup debut against Morocco on Saturday, Alisson expressed confidence stemming from the team's training, work ethic, and the players' quality. "We have to create expectations to become a team that wins the World Cup," he asserted. He also downplayed the notion of favoritism, stating that "favorites don't guarantee anything to anyone" and can sometimes impose "a greater weight." Alisson also confirmed he is "100%" fit after a prior injury.
