“I think that what distinguishes the great coach today at the highest level is the management of individuals, so we must look at Ancelotti,” said Regragui. The former Moroccan international has similarly praised Ancelotti before.
During Morocco’s hosting of the FIFA Club World Cup, the two spoke during a training session. Standing on the sidelines, Regragui pointed out where the teams had been training for the Club World Cup. The two coaches greeted each other while congratulating one another on their teams’ performances in 2022. Real Madrid won the Champions League and Spain’s La Liga. Meanwhile, Morocco captured the world’s attention and heart with a historic run at the World Cup in Qatar.
“I have learned so much from you,” Regragui said in Spanish to Ancelotti. Regragui also named Real Madrid the “best team in the world.” Spanish media asked Regragui what he liked about Ancelotti and his coaching style. He replied: “I like that he is close to the players and always wins, he is a humble person, and this is the most important thing in football.”
