Roberto di Matteo is set to sign a new deal with Chelsea - which will be longer than the expected one-year. The Daily Mail says the European champions have asked Di Matteo to remain in charge after the Italian guided them to a stunning Champions League and FA Cup double as their 'interim first-team coach'.
Contract terms have now been agreed - and it is definitely more than a one-year deal that would look like he was simply holding the fort until Pep Guardiola made himself available.
On Sunday night both sides were hoping to complete negotiations within the next 48 hours.
