Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti is delighted with the revival of AC Milan this season.

Ancelotti is also happy for Pippo Inzaghi, who he coached while working in Italy.

"Is Inzaghi a great coach? You become a great one with experience, though Pippo is on track because he coaches with enthusiasm and has a great team.

"Milan, although it can experience moments of difficulty, remains a big club."

On former Real goalkeeper Diego Lopez, now with Inzaghi at Milan, Carletto added: "When they asked me about him, I said frankly that he was a very good goalkeeper and I'm glad that he is showing it.

"He's a serious professional."
