CARLO EYES CHINA CASH

- By Clive Hetheringt­on

SACKED Bayern Munich boss Carlo Ancelotti will hold talks with representa­tives of Chinese Super League clubs in the next week.

The former Chelsea chief plans to meet intermedia­ries in Germany acting on behalf of the Chinese.

Ancelotti last month dismissed as “a joke’’ claims from former Bayern winger Mario Basler that he had agreed a pre-contract to join a Chinese club in January.

But now he is ready to discuss deals, with more than one Chinese club interested in the 58-year-old.

Fellow ex-Chelsea boss Luiz Felipe Scolari has urged Ancelotti to take his own job at Guangzhou Evergrande, where the Brazilian looks set to leave.
