Laurent Blanc is in the running for the Chelsea job this summer, according to reports from L’Equipe du Soir, as cited by Mundo Deportivo.
The former Manchester United defender and Paris Saint-Germain manager has been linked with the Stamford Bridge job throughout his career.
The Frenchman has been without a job since leaving the Paris Saint-Germain back in 2016.
Maurizio Sarri, Massimo Allegri and Luis Enrique appear to be the front-runners for the Chelsea job this summer.
Antonio Conte is set to leave the club just months after guiding the Blues to the Premier League title.
Despite having an impressive playing career, Blanc is one of the lesser experienced managers on the market this summer.
Prior to his stint with Paris Saint-Germain, he managed the French national team for two years and spent three years with Bordeaux.
With Blanc currently out of work, the Blues would not have to pay any compensation to hire him.
