Maurizio Sarri’s future at the club is set to be decided in the coming weeks as Chelsea identify Frank Lampard as the Italian’s replacement.
According to Calcio Mercato, as cited on Sport Witness, ‘indirect contacts’ have been made to know the availability of the manager as AC Milan are keen on making the Italian their new boss amid concerns over Gennaro Gattuso’s position.
However, Calcio Mercato suggests that the former Napoli boss is adamant on staying in the Premier League as the salaries are higher in England than the rest of Europe.
It comes as no shock that ‘super Frank’ tops Chelsea’s manager wish list as the former Blue has enjoyed a good debut season in charge of Derby County.
The Englishman sees his side sit in the final play-off position with just one game left to play, but it would be hard for the Chelsea legend to turn down a chance to manage his beloved club.
