Carlo Ancelotti: 'Real Madrid don't need Robert Lewandowski'

Carlo Ancelotti says that Real Madrid do not need Robert Lewandowski due to the attacking talent already present at the club.

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has played down the rumours that he could make a move to sign Borussia Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski.

The Poland international has just one year left on his current deal at the Westfalenstadion and has been linked with a number of Europe's elite clubs.

However, Ancelotti insists that Madrid do not need Lewandowski due to the attacking talent already present at the Santiago Bernabeu.

"Lewandowski's a great striker but Cristiano [Ronaldo] is the best striker in the world," Ancelotti told AS.

"And besides, we also have [Karim] Benzema and quality players like [Alvaro] Morata and Jese [Rodriguez]. We have enough strikers, we don't need anyone else."

Lewandowski scored five times in four meetings against Madrid in the Champions League last season.
