AC Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed he would only leave the San Siro to manage Roma amid reports he is Chelsea's top managerial target.Ancelotti had been strongly tipped to replace Avram Grant at Chelsea after the Israeli was sacked last month.

Newspaper reports on Sunday suggested the Blues were ready to pay Milan up to £20million - a world record 'fee' - to prise Ancelotti from the Rossoneri.

However, Ancelotti has since insisted he will remain in charge of Milan for next season.

Ancelotti, though, has explained that if he were to one day part company with Rossoneri for another club it would be for Roma, a team he captained as a player during his eight-year stint at the Stadio Olimpico.

"I have always said that I could only leave Milan for Roma," Ancelotti told Corriere dello Sport.
