A move to Chelsea could still be on for Inter Milan veteran Javier Zanetti.
The 40 year-old is leaning towards hanging up his boots at the end of the season and is being offered a coaching role by Jose Mourinho at Chelsea.
Gazzetta dello Sport says Zanetti is due for talks with Inter owner Erick Thohir this week to define his future.
Should the Argentine choose to retire, Thohir would like him to stay on as a coach, but it's understood Zanetti favours moving to London to kickoff that stage of his career.
