The Italian denies that he was sounded out by Liverpool before Jurgen Klopp was appointed manager last month but admits he would like to coach in England again.

Carlo Ancelotti has denied holding talks with Liverpool in October, though the former Chelsea manager would like to return to the Premier League.

Ancelotti was reportedly sounded out by the Reds as a potential replacement for Brendan Rodgers before Jurgen Klopp was appointed to replace the Northern Irishman.

But the 56-year-old Italian, who is on a break after he was sacked by Real Madrid at the end of the 2014-15 season, said he did not speak with the Merseyside club.
