Speculation has been rife in Italy and England that Ancelotti will leave for Chelsea in the summer, and he is set to sit down on Monday with the club directors to discuss his future.

However, he claims he is happy to remain in Milan as long as the club want him, adding that he has no plans to meet with Chelsea and club owner Roman Abramovich.

"My future will be much clearer for everyone after the meeting I will have with the Milan directors at the end of the season," said Ancelotti, whose current contract at the San Siro runs out next summer.

"The game against Fiorentina will not influence my choices or those of the club. It has zero impact on my future and only matters to get direct access to next season's Champions League.

"I don't have any meeting planned shortly with Abramovich. I have been learning English for two years and if the Milan directors ask me to stay, I will."

Milan are currently three points above Fiorentina in the standings but know that defeat against La Viola on Sunday would condemn them to the Champions League qualifying stages.
