However, Marca says Ancelotti will take in the meeting, he will ultimately reject the proposal.

Ancelotti still has a year to run on his Real Madrid contract, but is expected to leave at the end of this season with the club facing a rare, trophyless campaign.

He has informed CBF president Ednaldo Rodrigues of his decision.
