The 19-year-old is believed to be high on Ancelotti’s list over targets for the summer.
AC Milan want at least £45million if they are going to sell the youngster.
Pato said: “Carlo Ancelotti is very important to me, as a coach and a person.
“I feel a sense of owing him a great deal. I have a contract with Milan, but I would be interested if Ancelotti were to call.”
