An agent with close links to Chelsea has joined Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri’s entourage as the clamour of a potential move to London for the Italian grows.
Sarri’s Napoli are trying to gun down Juventus in the title race in Italy and are just a point behind the reigning champions in the Serie A table with four games left to play.
The former banker has earned overwhelming praise in recent months for the style of football he has introduced at Napoli and is believed to be on the shortlist of a number of clubs in Europe.
He is said to be on Chelsea’s radar as they continue to search for a replacement for Antonio Conte, who is widely expected to leave the club at the end of the season.
And the speculation surrounding Chelsea and Sarri is expected to grow in the coming weeks, as according to Italian daily Il Mattino, the Italian has added influential agent Fali Ramadani to his entourage.

Ramadani is known for his close links with Chelsea and has facilitated a number of deals for players for the Blues over the years.
He has joined Sarri’s entourage and will work alongside Alessandro Pellegrini to manage the Napoli coach’s career going forward.
And if Chelsea get serious about appointing the Italian in the summer, they have a man in Sarri’s team who could play a key role in taking him to London.
