Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti claimed he's NEVER HEARD of Chelsea defender Toni Rudiger.
Ancelotti was speaking after a thrilling Champions League semi-final first leg tie away at Manchester City.
Although Real Madrid lost the game, at 4-3 down heading to the Bernabeu there is still everything to play for.
Rudiger, meanwhile, has told Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel he will leave the Londoners at the end of the season on a free transfer.
Real Madrid have emerged as the frontrunners to snap up the centre-half in what would be a big coup.
Asked about the deal, Ancelotti answered: "Antonio Rudiger, who is this?
"He is a Chelsea player until... he is still a Chelsea player, and I cannot say anything about this."
