shot at managing in the Premier League, according to
his former charge David Beckham.
David Beckham has backed his former coach Carlo Ancelotti to
make a successful return to Premier League management.
Beckham played under Ancelotti at AC Milan and Paris Saint-
Germain during the closing stages of his career, either side of
the Italian lifting the league championship title with Chelsea in
2009-10.
A limp defence of that crown saw Ancelotti dismissed from his
Stamford Bridge post, paving the way for stints with PSG and
Real Madrid – where he won the Champions League for a third
time as a coach.
The 56-year-old was linked with the managerial vacancy at
Liverpool in the aftermath of Brendan Rodgers' sacking on
Sunday but former Borussia Dortmund boss Jurgen Klopp is
now the odds-on favourite to take the reins at Anfield.
Asked whether he could envisage Ancelotti returning to England,
Beckham told Sky Sports News: "I can because he's a manager
that people want to be in charge of a club.
"He's a manager that players love playing for.
"I was lucky that he brought me in on loan when he was at AC
Milan, I played for him at PSG.
"So I know what he's all about. The players hold him in high
regard and he's a winner.
"He'll fit in at any club he goes into because he's a manager who
knows how to win games and how to win trophies.
"Whichever club he goes to he will be successful."
