Carlo Ancelotti says he is counting on Everton fans to support his Real Madrid side in the Champions League final against Liverpool on Saturday night.
Real face Jurgen Klopp’s Reds in an 8pm kick-off at the Stade de France for the chance to add the trophy to their La Liga triumph in what would be their 14th European crown. It would be a fitting end to Ancelotti’s first season back at the Spanish giants.
The Italian manager re-joined Real in June 2021 after resigning from his position as Everton boss. It was quite the career move, leaving the Toffees after a 10th-place finish in the Premier League to take over Los Blancos, but it has proved a successful one which has brought him yet more silverware.
