Chelsea are already on the hunt for their next manager.

While the future of Maurizio Sarri is up in the air, the Blues are wasting no time in sounding out potential successors.

According to the Evening Standard, a name that is being mentioned is Laurent Blanc.

The French legend has not managed since being dismissed by Paris Saint-Germain in 2016.

But it has been said that Blanc would be interested in coming to the Premier League, where he played with Manchester United at the tail end of his career.

Other names being mentioned in the media include Frank Lampard, Gianfranco Zola and Zinedine Zidane.
