Munich: Incoming Bayern Munich head coach Carlo Ancelotti has said he will respect the legacy of current trainer Pep Guardiola, after the latter leaves the Bavarian football club, and indicated that he will maintain the Spaniard's ball possession tactics.

In quotes taken from Ancelotti's book 'Quiet Leadership' and published by German weekly news magazine Stern, the Italian coach says he does not pay much attention to this issue, but he will be careful not to destabilise a playing style that has achieved success, reports Efe.
