Ancelotti wants to spend time with his sick father Giuseppe.
He said, after their 5-0 win over Blackburn on Saturday:: “It has been a difficult time but this is life. I hope my father will be better in the next day.
“Tomorrow I have a free day and will go back to Italy and return on Monday but I think my father will be better.
“These are difficult days but after Monday I think he will be better and I can stay here without problems.”
