Milan midfielder Andrea Pirlo has refused to rule out the possibility of joining Chelsea this summer.
With former Rossoneri boss Carlo Ancelotti having recently taken charge at Stamford Bridge, a number of the club’s players have been linked with a switch to west London.
Brazilian Kaka was touted as a potential target, but has since completed a big-money move to Real Madrid, while his compatriot Alexandre Pato is also believed to be a possible target for Chelsea.
Pirlo is the latest to find himself at the centre of speculation, and has done little to halt talk of a move.
“Me at Chelsea? Let’s see,” the midfielder said from Italy’s training camp in South Africa ahead of the Confederations Cup.
“Maybe not now, but we will see.”
Pirlo has admitted that the sale of Kaka has disrupted the Milan camp and he believes the club could suffer for cashing in on their most prized asset.
“We took it badly,” he added.
“Kaka is a really great player and a really great man. To cover his absence will take time.
“They (the Milan board) wanted to bring in the money. Ricardo (Kaka) was right to say this hasn’t been his decision.”
