Real Madrid coach Ancelotti calm about Benzema, Modric Saudi rumours

Legendary coach Carlo Ancelotti has hinted his Real Madrid players would never join a Saudi Arabian club.

Ancelotti was asked about ex-Real star Cristiano Ronaldo playing for Al-Nassr.

Ronaldo made the move after the World Cup, weeks after his contract with Manchester United was terminated by mutual consent.

"I don't think Benzema or Modric are going to come to my office, because I don't think they need my advice," Ancelotti said of Karim Benzema and Luka Modric,.

“The legends of Madrid have to stay in Madrid, and retire here.

"That's what I think and we're talking about two legends."
