Chelsea have sounded out Antonio Conte's camp about the prospect of the Juventus coach moving to London in the summer.
Blues owner Roman Abramovich has a shortlist of high quality candidates to take charge next season as interim manager Rafa Benitez moves on in June.
Corriere della Sera says Chelsea have made enquiries to Conte's representatives, which prompted his public comments about the prospect of moving to Stamford Bridge last month.
However, the Italian is happy in Turin and committed to the current Juve project.
