Milan midfielder Andrea Pirlo has denied expressing an interest in moving to Chelsea this summer.

Reports on Tuesday claimed the Italy international said he could be tempted to follow former boss Carlo Ancelotti to Stamford Bridge.

He was quoted as saying: “Perhaps it’s possible that I could join Ancelotti in London. He is a great coach, perhaps I could play with him again.”

“I have not made any of the comments that have been attributed to my name.”
