Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has looked back on his time in charge of Everton with fondness — and a touch of irony.
“My dream was always to manage Liverpool,” Ancelotti admitted. “But I ended up at Everton and got to experience the fierce rivalry up close — and from that moment, I was fully behind the blue side.”
He praised the club’s atmosphere and the supporters’ passion: “The energy around the club was incredible. You really feel how deeply the fans care, especially in relation to Liverpool, who have long been the dominant force in the Premier League.”
Ancelotti managed Everton from December 2019 to June 2021 before making a surprise return to Real Madrid.

Konaté: “Success Will Come” Despite the uncertainty, Konaté remains optimistic. Speaking in a recent interview, the French centre-back emphasized that this phase is part of a bigger journey. According to him, Liverpool are still adapting — especially with new players settling into the squad. He believes that with time, chemistry will improve and trophies will follow. 🏆 He also pointed to last season’s success as proof that the team has what it takes to bounce back stronger. 🤝 A Call for Unity More than anything, Konaté stressed the importance of togetherness between the team and its supporters. He praised the Anfield faithful and urged everyone to stay united, insisting that better days are ahead if patience is maintained. ❤️ Interestingly, his comments come at a time when his own future at the club remains uncertain, with his contract situation yet to be resolved heading into the summer. 🔍 What Happens Next? Liverpool’s season is now entering a defining period. Results must improve, injuries need to clear, and stability must return — both on and off the pitch. But if Konaté’s words are anything to go by, belief inside the squad is still very much alive. And sometimes… that’s all it takes before everything turns around. 👀🔥
