Gianfranco Zola is considering a return to Chelsea as part of Antonio Conte’s coaching staff.

According to The Sun newspaper, Zola is open to the comeback at Stamford Bridge.

The former Chelsea player is currently out of work and was interviewed for the Inter job before they went for Stefano Pioli.

If Gareth Southgate is confirmed as England manager, then he’s likely to bring Steve Holland into his staff.

That would leave Conte without an assistant manager, so Zola would fit the bill.

“I am saying something obvious if I say one day I want to be Chelsea manager. But I’ve always said I would like to be a Chelsea Coach.

“But I haven’t spoken to Antonio about that. I like to see my old club in good hands. I’m really happy for Antonio and I hope he’s successful.”
