Carlo Ancelotti has become the first coach to win the Champions League four times and Football Italia asks you to pick the best team led by the Italian tactician to European glory.
The Merengues have won the 14th Champions League in their history, the second one under the Italian boss who had already conquered two European titles at Milan, first in 2003 and then in 2007.
Ancelotti has coached some of the best players in the history of the game, from Paolo Maldini to Sergio Ramos, from Andrea Pirlo to Luka Modric. They have all lifted the Champions League with Carletto in charge and the same goes for Karim Benzema, Cristiano Ronaldo, Kaká and Andriy Shevchenko.
Now, it could be not very easy to pick a combined XI with the teams that won the trophy under Ancelotti, but, for now, we’re just asking you to select the best line-up chosen by Ancelotti in the four Champions League Finals he’s won. Which one would you take?
Let us know by voting in the poll below and have your say in the comments section.
