Ex-Chelsea boss linked again with the Blues
Carlo Ancelotti says he is ready to return to the Premier League in the near future after confirming that he wants to return to management in England.
Ancelotti has had a spell with Chelsea, winning the Premier League and FA Cup for the Blues, and has been out of a job since being sacked by Real Madrid last summer.
The former Milan and PSG boss was heavily linked with a move to Liverpool over the last couple of weeks following the departure of Brendan Rodgers, however the Reds instead decided to opt for Jurgen Klopp as the man to get their season back up and running.
Current Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is currently under pressure following an indifferent start to the campaign for his side, and Ancelotti says he’s ready to return should an attractive offer come his way.
Premier League Return for Ancelotti
“I am ready to get the engine back up and running in January. I’d like to go back to the Premier League,” he said.
“It is the ideal environment not for football, but for the ‘game’ around football.
“You can work with the right amount of pressure, the necessary detachment and calm.
“Before I quit, I’d like to have another experience in England.
“Where will I go? Where they call me. I will talk, evaluate and decide.
“Up until a few weeks ago I was scared someone would call, but now I feel like I’m getting closer to that comeback.”
