Chelsea chief Peter Kenyon was not involved in negotiations for coach Carlo Ancelotti, it has been revealed.
The Guardian says Ancelotti's negotiations to join Chelsea apparently took place without the involvement of Kenyon, casting further doubt on the part being played at the club by the chief executive.
After meetings with the club owner, Roman Abramovich, last year Ancelotti negotiated his move from Milan with the Chelsea sporting director, Frank Arnesen, sources in Italy have revealed.
Kenyon was on holiday when Chelsea sacked Luiz Felipe Scolari as their coach last February but, despite persistent rumours that he was on the verge of leaving, the club has always said he was there to stay.
Chelsea have countered previous speculation about Kenyon's departure with the claim he will be responsible for transfer negotiations this summer.
