Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti has denied claims he spoke with Jurgen Klopp about Liverpool's elimination in the Champions League.

Ancelotti was quoted by the Italian press saying Klopp believed it was "criminal" that the tie with Atletico Madrid was played amid coronavirus concerns.

But speaking with L'Equipe, the Blues manager said: "It is not true. I speak to Klopp but I did not speak to him about this.

"Of course I miss football. I like to train, I like to watch games, it's normal.

"However, soccer is not my priority right now. In fact, I don't care if we resume in June, July or August."
