Scolari advises Carlo Ancelotti to replace him at Guangzhou Evergrande

Luiz Felipe Scolari advised Carlo Ancelotti to consider replacing him at Guangzhou Evergrande.

“If Ancelotti is offered the opportunity to come to Guangzhou, he should consider grasping it,” Scolari told a news conference,” Scolari said in the press conference ahead of the FA Cup clash with Shanghai SIPG on Saturday, as quoted by FourFourTwo.

“Evergrande is a fantastic club, with a great working environment. Not only for Ancelotti, Evergrande is a good destination for any coach who is linked with the club.

“My current contract at Evergrande runs until November 30 and of course, I’m willing to fulfill it.

“In the meantime, I will do my utmost to win as many titles as I can.”

Ancelotti has been linked with a move to the Far East, but he dismissed those reports as “a joke”.
