Ancelotti: 'Di Maria, Lopez not leaving'

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti has said that Angel di Maria and Diego Lopez will not be leaving the club despite reports linking them with moves away from the Bernabeu.

Di Maria has been linked with Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United, while Diego Lopez is reportedly a target for Monaco and Chelsea.

Ancelotti told reporters: "He [Di Maria] is still on holiday and will come back to training with Real Madrid on 5 August, as is planned.

"Diego Lopez looks good, as always. He is working hard and is very professional. There's no news on his exit.

"He's a Real Madrid player and won't play [against United] because I want to give Iker [Casillas] some minutes as he will play the Super Cup."

Madrid play Manchester United in the International Champions Cup on Saturday before taking on Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup.
