Profile of Carlo Ancelotti on Famous Like Me

Carlo Ancelotti (born June 10, 1959 in Reggiolo) is a former football player and now coach. He has been coach of the Italian team AC Milan since 2001. Before that he coached Reggina, Parma and Juventus.

As a player, Ancelotti appeared 26 times for Italy, and played in the 1990 World Cup. In 2003, he became only the fourth coach to win the European crown as both player and coach. He was in the AC Milan team that won the 1989 and 1990 Champion Clubs’ Cups in Barcelona and Vienna. The other three are: Miguel Muñoz (Real Madrid player 1956, 1957, Real Madrid coach 1960, 1966); Giovanni Trapattoni (AC Milan player 1963, 1969, Juventus coach 1985); Johan Cruyff (AFC Ajax player 1971-73, FC Barcelona coach 1992). At Juventus he was known as an "almost-man", because during his time in charge at the Turin based club, he never won a single trophy. That all changed when he went to Milan. He is also credited for converting Italian superstar Andrea Pirlo into a defensive playmaker.
