Carlo Ancelotti has insisted that he "didn't want to consider any other offer" as soon as he learned of Bayern Munich's interest in his services.

The German champions revealed earlier today that the 56-year-old would be their new boss from next summer onwards, replacing Pep Guardiola.

Ancelotti had been linked with a host of clubs, including Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United, but the Italian has stressed that he only wanted to join Bayern.

"It's an honour for me to be part of this great club next season, FC Bayern Munich," he wrote on his official Twitter feed.

"When I knew of the club's interest I didn't want to consider any other offer."

Ancelotti has agreed a three-year contract at the Allianz Arena.
