Maurizio Sarri has reportedly agreed the terms of his Chelsea contract and is closing in on the job at Stamford Bridge.
Gazzetta dello Sport, as cited on Calcio Mercato, claim that Sarri will put pen to paper on a two-year deal, which will include the option of a third.
During his time at Stamford Bridge, Sarri will earn just shy of £5 million per year, a considerable difference between the £9 million Antonio Conte was taking home.
Both clubs are still working on the fee that the Blues will pay to hire Sarri this summer.
Due to his departure from the Naples club, Chelsea do not have to pay the full release clause that has been reported, however, there will still be a fee required.
Coming to an agreement on what exactly that fee will be appears to be the final touches before an official announcement can be made by both clubs.
