Chelsea have been linked with a move for AS Monaco coach Leonardo Jardim.
The Blues are expected to replace Antonio Conte this summer and Jardim is in the frame to take over.
The 43-year-old led Monaco to the semi-finals of the Champions League and the Ligue 1 title last year and Yahoo Sports has claimed Chelsea are willing to pay the €7.5 million release clause needed to get their man.
Jardim began his mangerial career in Portugal’s lower leagues with Camacha in 2003.
He subsequently led both Chaves and Beira-Mar to promotion, before joining Sporting Braga in 2011.
