Chelsea are reportedly exploring the possibility of bringing in Bologna coach Thiago Motta as replacement for Mauricio Pochettino.
The Blues have endured a disappointing season under the management of Pochettino, as they currently sit ninth place in the Premier League standings.
They also face the prospect of missing out on European competition next season.
With frustration among fans growing, Chelsea are said to be seeking alternatives for the coaching position.
Motta has garnered attention for his impressive work at Bologna, leading the club to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in their history.
His success has also drawn interest from other top clubs in Italy, including Milan and Juventus.
