Ancelotti denies Van Persie, Pirlo moves

Paris Saint-Germain boss Carlo Ancelotti has rejected claims that the club could bid for Arsenal striker Robin van Persie and Juventus midfielder Andrea Pirlo.

The French outfit are expected to add to their squad this summer, but the 53-year-old boss has insisted that the two players in question are not on his list of targets.

"Van Persie is not a target of ours, but I think he is for other clubs. Pirlo is an interesting player for any club, but I have had the chance to coach him for eight years and that is enough," he told reporters.

PSG finished second in Ligue 1 last season.
