Pato to follow Carletto
Friday 19 June, 2009

Milan starlet Alexandre Pato has reiterated his desire to follow his former Coach Carlo Ancelotti to Chelsea.

The explosive striker, who is currently in South Africa with the Brazilian national team for the Confederations Cup, had previously expressed his attachment to the Rossoneri shirt.

“Ancelotti is very important to me,” said the youngster.

“He was the one who wanted me in Milan and gave me the chance to grow up as a player.”

Pato is currently tied to Milan by a long term contract and the Rossoneri want to hold on to him for the time being.

“I have a contract with Milan but I would be seriously interested if Chelsea called me,” confessed the striker.

These comments are likely to upset Vice-President Adriano Galliani who has already explained on several occasions that the young Brazilian represents the future of Milan.
