Chelsea are lining up a shock move for the former Tottenham boss Juande Ramos if Jose Mourinho is sacked before the end of the season.
Chelsea board are thought to be in discussions with Roman Abramovich regarding the future of the Portuguese manager and have earmarked the Spaniard as a possible replacement.
According to The Times, Abramovich is reluctant to sack Mourinho but the Russian is concerned about results and wants an immediate improvement.
Chelsea have been linked with the likes of Ancelotti and Simeone earlier this season and it is quite surprising to see them linked with the former Real Madrid and Tottenham boss.
