Chelsea are reportedly interested in hiring Luis Campos as their sporting director to work with the newly appointed head coach Graham Potter.
Campos is under consideration by the Blues as a replacement for Michael Emenalo, who left for AS Monaco last year.
The 58-year-old has been working as football advisor for Paris Saint-Germain since June following spells with both Lille, Monaco and Real Madrid prior to that.
The new Chelsea owners, fronted by the American investor Todd Boehly, are understood to be unhappy with both the performances and structure of the squad - hence the reason change in manager.
