It was reported earlier this week that Saudi Pro League giants Al Ahli have expressed an interest in signing the 24-year-old Brazil star.
Speculation suggests that Saudi Arabia dreams of making the Los Blancos winger the face of football in the country before they host the 2034 FIFA World Cup.
The oil-rich nation would reportedly be willing to break the bank for the 2024 Ballon d'Or favourite, who has a €1 billion (R19.9 billion) release clause in his contract in Madrid, and make him the highest-paid player in history.
While publications in Spain have insisted Real have no intention of parting ways with Vinicius, Ancelotti has now told reporters there is no truth to the rumours at all.
"I can guarantee that there's nothing to it," he said, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
"It's pure speculation."
