Chelsea midfielder Ramires has added to speculation linking him with a move to Real Madrid by praising Los Blancos Head Coach Carlo Ancelotti.
The 27 year-old, who is currently with Brazil at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, was brought to Chelsea by Ancelotti in August 2010 and holds the tactician in high regard.
“Ancelotti is a special Coach for me, and I really appreciate him,” he is quoted as saying by Marca.
“He helped me a lot when I arrived at Chelsea and he was very important in helping me adapt to my position as a central midfielder. He’s a very good Coach.”
Ramires played just two minutes in Brazil’s 3-1 win against Croatia, but provided a key assist for Oscar, who scored the Seleção’s third goal.
