Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has been granted an honorary degree by the University of Parma.
Ancelotti is back in Italy this week to receive the honour.
I will tell my players to call me Doctor from now on," he joked. "I come from a family that is genetically predisposed to strong emotion, so it is natural I react this way.
You cannot train Diego Maradona to dribble better. That is genetic. What you can do with talented players is help them remember the importance of altruism. That is what differentiates a great player from a champion.
Football helped me improve my relationship with others, learn respect for the rules, for your opponents and your teammates.
Being a coach above all means knowing how to listen to others, your collaborators and players, then make your own decisions.
I try to transmit my ideas via persuasion, not by forcing them upon others. I am calm, very patient, and above all I am fortunate to be supported by a great passion for this sport. It is a passion I had at the age of 15 and I still have today."
