According to the Daily Star, Chelsea have identified a replacement for manager Antonio Conte, in a move that would also see a new Director of Football installed.
Former Barcelona head coach Luis Enrique is reportedly being lined up, with Conte’s future at Stamford Bridge in doubt. Juliano Belletti could join him as Director of Football.
As for Conte, the Italian coach looks on his way out of the club next summer. Despite winning the title with Chelsea last season, the Blues have since struggled for form in the Premier League, and questionable transfer activity soured the relationship between manager and owner Roman Ambramovich.
