AC Milan's technical director Leonardo has dismissed reports suggesting Carlo Ancelotti will be leaving the San Siro in the summer and taking charge of Chelsea.

Rumours about Ancelotti's impending move to Stamford Bridge have gathered pace in the last few days, but Leonardo is in no doubt that he will be staying with the Rossoneri, as long as they secure a place in next season's Champions League.

"I think everything is pretty much clear regarding Ancelotti," Leonardo told the club's official website.

"The coach has a contract here until 2010. The relationship with Milan is there for all to see. Everyone knows there is harmony between club and coach.

"Our plans are clear, we have to reach the Champions League."
