Ancelotti relishing clash with former club

Abuja - Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has
revealed he is relishing the clash with former club
AC Milan in the upcoming Dubai Challenge Cup.
Los Blancos, who are currently on an astonishing 22-
game unbeaten run, take on three-time defending
champions Milan on Tuesday in the exhibition match
held annually during the winter break.
Ancelotti managed the Rossoneri for nearly a decade
and enjoyed one of the most successful periods in
his managerial career, winning two Champions
League titles, one Coppa Italia and One Serie A
during his eight-year tenure.
According to Football411, the Italian is predicting an
emotional encounter with his former employers and
is looking forward to squaring off against one of the
more prominent players during his reign in Fillipo
Inzaghi, who is now in charge of the Rossoneri.
"It is going to be a very special match for me. I have
a lot of history with Milan and I also have a great
relationship with the Milan manager (Filippo
Inzaghi), who was one of my players," Ancelotti is
quoted as saying by Sky Sports.
"It will be a special day for me. It is an honour to
play against them because I have very fond
memories of the club.
"It is a warm-up game, both teams will be treating as
such, but it will also be a great spectacle of football.
"The two teams with the most amount of European
Cup titles face each other. It is good to be part of this
event.
"Real Madrid has a very strong image and it is a
pleasure to be in Dubai. We want to treat our
supporters to a win. Playing here is great motivation.
"Additionally, this game will also be good
preparation for the upcoming matches. We have a
lot of fans here, there is a lot of excitement and love.
It is great for us to come and play here and make
our fans happy."
