Carlo Ancelotti denies that he was approached to become the new manager of Liverpool, but says that the club have made a good choice in appointing Jurgen Klopp.

Carlo Ancelotti has denied that Liverpool approached him about becoming their new manager, and claims that the Reds have appointed the right man in Jurgen Klopp.

Ancelotti, who is out of work after leaving Real Madrid in the summer, was linked with the post at Anfield following the sacking of Brendan Rodgers last month before it went to former Borussia Dortmund boss Klopp.

The German coach has picked up three wins so far in his reign and Ancelotti, is confident that he can bring success back to the Merseyside outfit.

"They made the right appointment in Klopp. He is a good manager. With the best managers you see their identity in their team. Klopp's Dortmund team had a very strong identity," the Italian told the Daily Mail.

"I think Liverpool are a good team. They have some really good young players — [Philippe] Coutinho, [Roberto] Firmino, [Christian] Benteke.

"If they can find an experienced player like [Steven] Gerrard or [Jamie] Carragher — an example to the squad — I think they can be really competitive. But I did not speak with them. If I spoke with them I can say 'yes', but no, I did not."

Ancelotti has been linked with a return to Chelsea, whom he managed from 2009 to 2011.
