Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti insists that Napoli have not agreed a fee to sign Gonzalo Higuain, dismissing reports over a deal as false.

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti has insisted that there is no agreement in place with Napoli over the sale of Gonzalo Higuain.

Napoli were widely reported to have agreed a £31.8m deal for the Argentine forward in the last 24 hours, but Ancelotti is adamant that the claims are false.

He told reporters when asked to confirm stories of a deal involving Napoli: "Not true, I don't have any news about this.

"I think that now we have to speak about Higuain as a Real Madrid player. He is a fantastic player and a fantastic striker who took one minute to score tonight. I spoke to him this week.

"He is a Real Madrid player and until we have news we have to consider him as a Real Madrid player and I would like him to stay with us. He is very important to us and nothing else, it is not my business to judge the price of a player."

The 25-year-old scored less than two minutes after coming on as a substitute for Madrid last night, netting in a 6-0 friendly win over Bournemouth at the Goldsands Stadium.
