Ancelotti daughter: He wanted Ibrahimovic at Napoli

The daughter of Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti admits her father wanted to sign Zlatan Ibrahimovic for Napoli.

Napoli made an attempt for the Swede before he eventually left LA Galaxy for AC Milan.

Katia Ancelotti recalled to Radio Kiss Kiss: "He came to Napoli to win, but sometimes things don't go as you would like. Winning at Napoli would have been great.

"Ibrahimovic? It was really a shame because together they could have done very well. The month of November was terrible and the arrival of Ibrahimovic would have given an incredible shock to the environment because he would have really changed a dressing room.

"Napoli was a big disappointment because it wasn't a season to throw away, but things are going as they should now (at Real Madrid)."
