While Steve Holland would remain as the Blues assistant manager, Angelo Alessio and Massimo Carrera would be allowed to join the Coach staff, along with Mauro Sandreani and brother Gianluca Conte for the scouting department.
The Guardian further reports that Conte himself will sign a three-year contract, with a deal possible as soon as next week.
