New Bayern Munich boss Carlo Ancelotti has revealed that former head coach Pep Guardiola left him a personal good luck message in the manager's office.
Guardiola has joined Manchester City for the 2016-17 season, with the former Real Madrid boss replacing him after taking a year out of the game.
Ancelotti insisted the pair have a good bond, as highlighted by the message left behind by the Catalan.
Asked what Guardiola's message was, Ancelotti told Bild : "Good Luck! He wrote it in Italian and capital letters on the wall. That was very pleasant, we have a good relationship."
The Italian also discussed playmaker Mario Gotze, who has been heavily linked with a move away from the Allianz Arena, as well as new teenage signing Renato Sanches.
Ancelotti said: "I had a private chat with Gotze. I told him my opinion and he told me his. He knows also Bayern's opinion.
"I monitored several young players in the last months — one of them was Renato Sanches. When I talked to Bayern about him they already had all the information about him. We both absolutely agreed, that this is exactly the player we would need."
