Mikel Arteta names the best coach in the world, snubs Guardiola, Mourinho

Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta loves the achievement of Carlo Ancelotti and has named the Real Madrid manager as the best coach in the world.

Ancelotti has had a successful career in coaching, winning multiple titles across stints with Juventus, AC Milan, Napoli, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

According to Daily Sports, the veteran Italian manager has won 25 major titles throughout his career, including four UEFA Champions League trophies and four UEFA Super Cups.

Arteta believes Ancelotti’s ability to succeed in different countries throughout his career makes him the greatest of all time, ahead of the likes of Pep Guardiola, Jose Mourinho or even Sir Alex Ferguson.

Ancelotti remains the only manager in history who has won league titles in all five top European leagues, including England, France, Spain, Germany and Italy.

Meanwhile, Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed Real Madrid will not make any signing in the January transfer window, shutting down speculations of new arrivals this winter at Santiago Bernabeu, GOAL reports.

Los Blancos are having a remarkable season under the Italian manager as they currently lead the title race in La Liga and are through to the knockout stage of the UEFA Champions League.

The search for a marquee centre forward still looms around the club as supporters believe Joselu has not done enough to fill that role since the exit of Karim Benzema, but Ancelotti believes otherwise.

‘Rank managers in terms of categories.’
