Carlo Ancelotti dines with Frank Lampard, Andrea Pirlo in Vancouver

Former Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti recently met up with Frank Lampard and Andrea Pirlo at a restaurant in Vancouver.

The two footballers, who are teammates at MLS side New York City FC, dined with Ancelotti at Cioppino's Mediterranean Grill earlier this week.

The New York team are currently in Canada for their clash against Vancouver Whitecaps, who will host their competitors on Sunday.

Ancelotti, who was sacked by Madrid in the summer, has recently been linked with a move to Liverpool due to the increasing pressure on current manager Brendan Rodgers, but the club have denied the reports.

On social media, the Italian coach opted against addressing the rumours, and instead uploaded a photo with Pirlo and Lampard, which carried the caption: "Great soiree with two legends and good friends @andreapirlo21 & @franklampard."
