Giampiero Ventura is only two months into his new role as head coach of the Italian national side.
However, the 68-year-old already appears to be eyeing up his next job in football after joking he would become Chelsea boss once Antonio Conte departs Stamford Bridge.
Ventura is preparing to take charge of his country for the first time on Thursday when the Azzurri take on France in a friendly in Bari.
The experienced Italian was appointed Conte's successor after the Blues boss stepped down from his role with the national side after Euro 2016.
