Chelsea are expected to complete the appointment of former Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri this week, according to The Sun.
The club have already held talks with Sarri, who remains under contract with Napoli despite the appointment of Carlo Ancelotti as his replacement at the Serie A club.
Chelsea are expected to have to fork out £4.5million in compensation to Napoli to land Sarri as Antonio Conte’s replacement.
And the Blues hope a £27million deal for Russia international Aleksandr Golovin will follow swiftly after the managerial situation is sorted.
