The manager is preparing his team for a run at another Bundesliga title but is also using the International Champions Cup to get acclimated with others around the club
Carlo Ancelotti has been through this before. He's come into a new club, a big club with a long tradition of success, and he's largely been able to continue that tradition, sometimes even writing new chapters in the storied history of the clubs. So with his Bayern Munich team's preseason preparation in full swing, and a match with Inter on Saturday, Ancelotti has his eyes trained on both the big picture and the little details.
The manager said after his team's penalty shootout defeat to AC Milan in their International Champions Cup opener that fitness and conditioining is the most important thing on the field, especially because so many of his players remain in Europe on holiday after Euro 2016. But also important to the Italian tactician is building relationships with not just his players but with everyone involved with the Bavarians.
"I think as a manager the relationship with a player is the most important part but also the people that are working with you, for you, in the club. Not only the players.," Ancelotti said. "The key of success at one club is to build a strong relationship with the club, with the players, with the staff and also with the supporters. It will be fantastic."
Ancelotti has made a strong first impression, with defender David Alaba telling Goal the Italian is "a really cool guy." Centre-back Holger Badstuber described the manager as "calm," while forward Julian Green said he's "the perfect coach" to lead the Bundesliga champions.
"He’s really friendly, a top-class manager," midfielder Arturo Vidal told Goal on Friday. "It’s a privilege to have him here as a manager, and we’re going to try to take advantage of that and do things well so we can win everything."
