Chelsea to announce Maurizio Sarri as head coach

According to Sky sources in Italy, Maurizio Sarri has agreed a deal to become Chelsea head coach, with Gianfranco Zola as his assistant.
Napoli's president revealed Sarri was close to finalising a deal to take over at Chelsea on Wednesday, two days before Antonio Conte's sacking was confirmed by the Premier League club.

Jorginho and Maurizio Sarri look set to reunite at Chelsea. Sarri was replaced by Carlo Ancelotti as Napoli manager last month but remained at the club as a compensation settlement between the 51-year-old and the Serie A club was agreed.
