Maurizio Sarri's representatives are in London today to have showdown talks with Chelsea, according to reports in Italy.
The Italian is wanted by the Blues as they look for a replacement for current boss Antonio Conte, who looks set to leave.
Sarri is reportedly high on Chelsea's shortlist to be their new manager, with former Barcelona boss Luis Enrique also in the frame.
Russian giants Zenit St Petersburg are trying to hire the Italian too and have made him an offer worth over £5m-a-year.
But, according to Sportitalia, Sarri's representatives will arrive in the English capital this afternoon to discuss the potential vacancy at Stamford Bridge.
The 59-year-old is now on the hunt for a new club after Napoli showed him the door to hire Carlo Ancelotti.
One stumbling block over a move to Chelsea is Sarri's clause with his former club, which means his new employers must pay Napoli £7m if he joins them before May 31.
