Chelsea are reportedly interested in appointing Laurent Blanc as the club's new permanent manager in the summer.
The France national team coach has been linked with a switch to Inter Milan, who are now on the lookout for a new boss following the dismissal of Claudio Ranieri yesterday.
It is believed that Blues owner Roman Abramovich has already approached the 46-year-old manager over possibly moving to the helm of Stamford Bridge, according to Le Parisien.
The former English champions are reportedly also considering reappointing ex-boss Jose Mourinho as well as pondering a move for Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola.
