Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti laughs off the idea that he'd manage Chelsea 'again', ahead of their clash in the Champions League... but insists he's a 'supporter' of the Blues and backs Frank Lampard to do a 'fantastic job'

Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has laughed off the suggestion that he may return to manage Chelsea, in his recent press conference.

The Italian head coach is preparing to take on his former side in their Champions League quarter-final clash on Wednesday night, at the Santiago Bernabeu.

And, ahead of the clash, Ancelotti asked whether there was any scope for him to return to Stamford Bridge in the future - given their recent change in management.

The Blues parted ways with first-team coach Graham Potter last week and turned their attention to club legend Frank Lampard, who is now caretaker manager.
