Carlo Ancelotti denies Chelsea ultimatum and looks to next season with AC Milan
Ancelotti still has a year left to run on his contract with Milan and last night's draw should be enough to guarantee them a place in the Champions League next season.
And Ancelotti branded as 'rubbish' the suggestion he had been given a deadline by which to decide if he will accept an offer from Chelsea.
'It is not a problem which concerns me,' he said.
'I don't have to give my availability. The time has not yet come for me to be replaced at Milan.
'It's easier to win in Europe with Milan than with other clubs so I am staying here.'
On the domestic front, though, Ancelotti has conceded Milan's Scudetto hopes are now over.
It is four seasons since Milan last won the title, but a win last night would have reduced Inter's lead to just five points with three games remaining.
But their rivals can now clinch a fourth straight title by beating Siena at the San Siro on Sunday night, regardless of how Milan get on at Udinese 24 hours earlier.
'That issue had already been dealt with,' said Ancelotti. '
Our aim is to get one more win to finish in the top three.
'It is not going to be easy at Udinese because they are in good form, but we should be able to take the points home with us from one of the next three games.'
