MARACANÃ WELCOMES ANCELOTTI

A kind letter from Maracanã Stadium dedicated to Brazil’s football national head-coach Carlo Ancelotti.





The Maracanã Stadium is the mecca of football. The center stage of two World Cup finals and where stars like Pelé, Garrincha, Romário and so many others could display their greatness.

Carlo Ancelotti, seven-time UEFA Champions League winner and former Real Madrid head-coach now faces the challenge of taking the Seleção once again to the top of the world.









Mr. Ancelotti was one of the few football legends to never coach at Maracanã.

CBF then called me to help them give their blessings on behalf of the stadium and iconic coaches such as Zagallo, Saldanha, Scolari and Parreira.








The voice of Maracanã could only be represented by the biggest sambista ever: Cartola.

His family was moved by the idea of borrowing his remarkable tone to a stadium that also gave him so much joy.

A divine stadium deserves a divine voice.
