# Everton fans express their excitement after Ancelotti’s ambitious comments

Carlo Ancelotti has indicated that he is at Everton for the long-haul, as he targets winning titles with the “beautiful club”, as [reported by evertonfc](https://www.evertonfc.com/news/1607715/ancelotti-reveals-long-term-goals-at-beautiful-club-everton).

The Italian has already made waves since joining the club in mid-December, leading Everton to 17 points from his eight Premier League games in charge, but the manager has loftier ambitions.

[Speaking to evertonfc](https://www.evertonfc.com/news/1607715/ancelotti-reveals-long-term-goals-at-beautiful-club-everton), Ancelotti revealed that he would like to stay at Everton for longer than his current four-and-a-half year contract, as he wants to win titles and challenge in Europe with the Toffees. Ancelotti said:

> I signed a four-and-a-half-year deal and I would like to finish my contract, to stay here, to do my best.
>
> And after that, if there is a possibility to continue, I would like to stay more. The ambition and idea is to stay longer.
>
> The plan is quite clear. First of all, the Club is going to build a new stadium, which is really important.
>
> The Club has big ambitions to be competitive in the Premier League and in Europe. We are working for this.
>
> The base of the squad is very good. We have some young players that are growing. Year-by-year, I think we are going to improve.

When asked where he sees Everton in three years, Ancelotti continued:

> I think I see Everton \[towards\] the top of the table, fighting for some titles, fighting to be competitive in Europe.
>
> And, hopefully, in the new stadium with all the crowd singing my song \[laughs\]. This is the dream!

Many Everton fans were excited to hear that Ancelotti has ambition for Everton and that he is in it for the long-haul on Merseyside, taking to social media to express their excitement.
