Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti says he would happily raid former club AC Milan for their stars.

"I would happily take many players from Milan with me as I have an extraordinary relationship with them," he told Radio Rai.

When asked if he could make a move for midfielder Gennaro Gattuso, though, he said: "He is a symbol of the club and it is right that he stays."

However, Andrea Pirlo and Kakha Kaladze have both been linked with Chelsea since Ancelotti's appointment become common knowledge.
