Manchester United midfielder Casemiro is reluctant to talk up Carlo Ancelotti's prospects for the Brazil job.
Ancelotti is expected to take charge of Brazil when his Real Madrid contract expires at the end of this season.
"Ancelotti is a great coach, a winner but he still has a contract with Real Madrid and it's disrespectful talk about him in the national team," former Real midfielder Casemiro said at yesterday's Selecao presser.
"We know that Ancelotti is an excellent coach, but we have a great coach in (Fernando) Diniz.
"We respect him as if we were at a World Cup."
