Carlo Ancelotti interested in Alexandre Pato

Paris Saint-Germain boss Carlo Ancelotti will move for AC Milan striker Alexandre Pato this winter, according to reports.

Pato, who arrived at the San Siro under Ancelotti four seasons ago, was also linked with a move to Chelsea throughout the Italian's tenure at Stamford Bridge. However, Milan vice president Adriano Galliano has said that the clubs are not in negotiations.

Nevertheless, the potential sale of Pato – who the club are expected to sell for no less than £40m, according to The People – would provide the funds for the Serie A outfit to step up their pursuit of controversial Argentinian forward Carlos Tevez.

Pato has scored 51 goals in 110 appearances for the Italian champions.
