Milan Coach Carlo Ancelotti has told Massimiliano Allegri he will have to wait a little longer before taking over the Rossoneri.Ancelotti is reportedly on his way to Chelsea this summer and Cagliari Coach Allegri has been identified as his possible replacement.
After losing his first five games in charge, Allegri has worked wonders with the Sardi, guiding them to eighth place in Serie A.
Despite allegedly receiving a lucrative contract offer worth £5.5m a year from Chelsea, which is said to include a £1m bonus for every trophy won, Ancelotti insists he is going nowhere.
“I exclude the possibility of going to Chelsea and I don't consider it necessary to give an explanation for that decision,” Ancelotti said.
When asked about the prospect of Allegri succeeding him, Ancelotti replied: “He is a very good Coach.
“I wish him the best of luck even if he will have to wait a little while longer to take my place here at Milan,” Ancelotti concluded.
The 49-year-old four-time European Cup winner is the second longest serving Coach in the history of Milan behind the great Nereo Rocco.
Ancelotti first took over the Rossoneri in 2001 after relatively short stints at Reggiana, Parma and Juventus.
He also represented Milan as a player, clocking up 112 appearances for the Rossoneri between 1987 and 1992.
