AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti admits he wants Luciano Spalletti's job at Roma.

"I know that what I am about to say will cause uproar," Ancelotti told Corriere dello Sport. "But if Spalletti wins the Champions League with Roma, which he deserves, then he should leave.

"With the Final being staged in Rome, I only hope that the Giallorossi can get revenge for the Final defeat they suffered there in 1984.

"History often repeats itself in football and I renew the hope which I offered during Roma's 80th birthday celebrations - that Roma can get revenge in the European Cup next May.

"Roma is a place where I would like to work, but this is an argument that you need to encounter with gloves on."
