Carlo Ancelotti has played down suggestions that he will leave Real Madrid in the summer, ruling out a move to Chelsea. Frank Lampard has recently been appointed as caretaker manager until the end of the season, while Todd Boehly continues the Blues' search for a new boss.
Julian Nagelsmann, Luis Enrique and Ancelotti are among those who have been heavily linked with taking the head coach role at Stamford Bridge. Mauricio Pochettino and Jose Mourinho have also been name checked in relation to the vacancy, but a frontrunner is yet to emerge.
In the meantime, the Real Madrid boss has ruled himself out, insisting that he still has a contract to respect at the Santiago Bernabeu. Ancelotti sees his deal in the Spanish capital expire at the end of next season after returning to the club for a second spell in charge in 2021.
