Gianfranco Zola hasn't followed Maurizio Sarri out of Chelsea - for now.

The London Evening Standard says he is facing an anxious wait to discover if he will still have a job at Chelsea next season.

Zola returned to the club, where he starred as a player between 1996-2003, as part of Maurizio Sarri's backroom staff last summer.

His appointment as assistant first-team coach was considered important for Sarri and the hierarchy because of his links with the club.

But with Sarri now on his way to Juventus, Zola faces an uncertain few weeks. It is unlikely that Sarri will ask Zola to join his backroom team in Turin.

Like the other nine members of Sarri's inner circle at Chelsea, Zola was handed just a one-year contract.
