Carlo Ancelotti's future decided after the Copa del Rey loss

According to recent reports by the media, Real Madrid management and Carlo Ancelotti might have decided about the future of their partnership after the 3-2 loss in the Copa del Rey final. Real Madrid have endured a torrid 15 days across all competitions, including bowing out to Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals and now failing to register a triumph against their arch-rivals in the cup competition. The wheels of the season are coming off, and the club might be looking to part ways with Carlo Ancelotti. 

In the game against Barcelona, Real Madrid fell behind, but the substitutions sparked a momentum shift, with Real Madrid scoring two goals to come from behind. However, that was not enough. Barcelona pushed the game to extra time with an equalizer and went on to score in the 116th minute to win the game. This resulted in a meltdown for both players and the manager. Talking about the game, Carlo Ancelotti mentioned that he is hurt, but he would not criticise the players, and they have given it all. Ancelotti said:

I'm hurt because we weren't able to lift the Cup; there's nothing to criticise because we gave it everything we had

Talking about the future at Santiago Bernabeu, Carlo Ancelotti mentioned that he can continue his tenure or he can apply the brakes. He also highlighted that this will be an ongoing conversation for the upcoming weeks. He said: 

I can go on or I can stop. It will be an ongoing issue 

It is rumored that the club might make a final decision before Real Madrid face Celta Vigo in La Liga.
