The 55-year-old signed a three-year contract upon taking charge at the Bernabeu in 2013 and the former AC Milan, Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain boss has refused to rule out a move to Germany in the future.
In an interview with Bild, Ancelotti was reminded that Xabi Alonso sat in the same seat before going on to sign for Bayern in August, with the manager joking, "I am superstitious, Bayern is a very big team."
If he was to ever assume the Allianz Arena hotseat, the Italian would follow in the footsteps of one of his coaching compatriots, Giovanni Trapattoni, who enjoyed two spells with the club in 1994-95 and 1996-98.
When asked by one reporter whether the language barrier could prove problematic, he Ancelotti replied: "If Giovanni Trapattoni can manage in Germany and learn the language then so can I."
The strength of the Bundesliga has increased considerably in recent years, culmanating with Bayern and Borussia Dortmund contesting the Champions League final in 2013.
Ancelotti was asked for his thoughts on the standard of Germany's top flight, which has a particular relevance given his Madrid side take on Schalke in the last 16 of the Champions Leaugue.
"The Bundesliga has grown rapidly," he praised. "The level is the same as England and Spain and this is why Germany won the World Cup. The technology has improved, I like it, the whole set-up.
He added: "We will be without James Rodriguez, Sergio Ramos, Pepe and Luka Modric.
"Schalke's style has changed into the style of an Italian coach, Roberto Di Matteo. Like all Italian coaches he has tried to give the side a sound defensive footing."
