Milan maestro Pirlo pours cold water on rumours linking him with Chelsea

AC Milan playmaker Andrea Pirlo has insisted he has no intention of following Carlo Ancelotti to Chelsea. The 30-year-old Italy international has been heavily linked with a £20million move to Stamford Bridge but dimissed reports he is ready to join his former coach in London. 'It is sorry for everyone that Ancelotti went, but it was natural that after so much time he wanted a new experience,' Pirlo told the Italian press. 'Now I will join up with the national team, the rest we will see, but I am happy at Milan.'
