Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti has denied any truth in the speculation linking Ashley Cole and Didier Drogba with moves away from Stamford Bridge.
England international Cole has been linked with a move to Spanish giants Real Madrid ever since former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho took charge at the Bernabeu, while Drogba has been pin-pointed as a possible target for Manchester City.
However, Ancelotti is adamant that the pair are settled at Stamford Bridge and that neither has the desire to leave.
When speaking about Cole’s link with Real Madrid, Ancelotti simply said: "It is not true."
It was a phrase he repeated when asked about City's supposed interest in Drogba.
The Blues have also recently been linked with an interest in Atletico Madrid star Sergio Aguero, but Ancelotti has denied any interest in the Argentina striker, who won the Europa League with Atletico last season.
"No, it is not true," said Ancelotti.
