University of the Italian city of Parma awarded the mentor of Real Madrid Carlo Ancelotti awarded a doctorate. This is reported by the official website of the educational institution.

The theme of Ancelotti's scientific work was "Science and technology of preventive and adapted motor activity".

"Some may say that I didn't take exams, but that's not true. I have gone through many exams and I still take new ones every three days. I don't consider coaching a job. It's more of a passion.

That's what has allowed me to stay in football for 44 years now. You can't buy that. I was like that when I was 15 years old. I'm the same way I am now. If you don't have passion, you can't give a hundred per cent," Ancelotti said.
