“No way. Like us, other clubs will refuse the invitation.”
Ancelotti's statement comes as Real Madrid continues to celebrate their recent Champions League and La Liga title victories.
The former Chelsea gaffer, who is also the most successful Champions League coach with five titles; three with Madrid and two with Milan, emphasized that the club's participation in the tournament was not feasible under the current terms.
