"I want to be very clear: I will never decide when I have to leave Real Madrid, it’s not myself deciding ... It will never be myself deciding when to leave Real Madrid."Carlo Ancelotti
Despite being Real Madrid's most decorated manager in history, Ancelotti has faced criticism from Los Blancos fans this season due to some underwhelming performances.
