Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich stated that the signing of Conte for his club has been informally completed, leaving a vacant seat for the Italian national team.
While the consensus so far was that the men touted for the job are Ranieri and Inter's Roberto Mancini, sources within the English Press lean heavily towards the former.
According to the Daily Express, the FIGC have set their eyes on Ranieri because of his international experience and his impressive run so far with Leicester City.
The Express confirms that Mancini is also being evaluated, along with Beijing Guoan Coach Alberto Zaccheroni and, strikingly, Fiorentina Coach Paulo Sousa, who had not been linked with the Azzurri before.
