could look to replace manager Antonio Conte with fellow Italian Maurizio Sarri, according to reports.
The Napoli boss has developed into one of Europe's leading coaches and his success at the Stadio San Paolo has earned rave reviews.
Sarri's side currently lead the way in Serie A, having won eight of their first nine league fixtures.
And while Antonio Conte's position remains under threat, there have been suggestions that Sarri may replace him at Stamford Bridge.
According to Italian outlet 7 Gold, Chelsea are prepared to offer Sarri a monumental salary of £9m-per-season in order to succeed Conte.
