Reports have suggested Madrid boss Jose Mourinho, who was close to Cole during his time at Stamford Bridge, is keen once again to link up with the 29-year-old and is set to launch a big-money bid.
But Ancelotti said: "I'm not interested in the relationship my player has with other coaches. Ashley Cole is a Chelsea player and he will remain a Chelsea player."
He added: "Everyone can forget the idea he will leave this club.
"There is no way that will happen. We believe he is the best left-back in the world and because of that he'll stay. There is no price that will make us sell."
