Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has been told to forget about making a summer raid for Brazil star Pato.
The Premier League leaders face Aston Villa in the FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday chasing the League and Cup Double and will want to strengthen in the summer to keep alive their dream of European glory.
Ancelotti signed the 20-year-old Pato for Milan in 2007 from South American team Internacional.
The striker has netted 36 goals in 74 games in Italy and Real Madrid are also keen. But Pato’s agent Gilmar Veloz insisted the player was going nowhere.
He said: “Chelsea and Real? These are only market rumours.
“There is nothing true. He has a deal with Milan and he feels good in Milan.”
Pato – whose name means duck – is under contract at Milan for another four years.
