The transfer of Carlo Ancelotti from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to Real Madrid involved negotiations over compensation. While Real Madrid initially paid €6 million to PSG for Ancelotti, additional receipts from two friendly matches between the two clubs were also part of the agreement.

The compensation also included the proceeds from the friendly matches, the dates of which were yet to be determined.
