Reports in England claim that Chelsea are preparing a bid of 60 million euros (£51m) to lure Pato to Stamford Bridge.

However Milan club administrator Adriano Galliani believes the Blues would be wasting their time as they recently turned down a "monster" offer made by an English club for Pato.

Galliani said: "We previously received a superior offer to this one and we already said no to that, so the answer would be no."

Pato finished as Milan's second stop scorer behind his compatriot Kaka in Serie A, with 15 goals in 36 league appearances last season.

He is under contract with the Rossoneri outfit until June 2012.
