Carlo Ancelotti Makes History With La Liga Title Win

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has made history by becoming the first manager to win a league title in each of Europe’s top five leagues.

The Italian achieved this feat after his Real Madrid side secured a 35th La Liga title on Saturday with a 4-0 victory against Espanyol.

Los Blancos only needed a point to seal the title but a Rodrygo Goes brace and two more goals from Marco Asensio and Karim Benzema put the icing on the cake.

Ancelotti has now won 22 trophies in total during his managerial career which has spanned over 25 years.

The 62-year-old won his first league title when he won the Serie A title with AC Milan in 2004. In 2010, he then steered Chelsea to Premier League success.

Ancelotti then moved on to France in 2013 where he would go on to claim the Ligue 1 with Paris Saint-Germain.

Not long after that, he secured a Bundesliga title for Bayern Munich in the 2016-17 season.

Ancelotti has now added La Liga title to his illustrious cabinet to become the only manager to have conquered all of Europe’s top five leagues.

Despite only securing the Serie A title once with AC Milan, the Italian guided the team to two Champions League titles.

He is one of a handful of managers who have won the Champions League multiple times, winning the trophy three times, twice with AC Milan and once in his previous stint as Real Madrid boss.

Ancelotti remains on course to fight for another Champions League trophy if his side can overturn the 4-3 loss to Manchester City in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
