According to reports, Chelsea are targeting Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti.

The Premier League side have axed former manager Graham Potter, and have appointed Frank Lampard as interim manager until the end of the season.

Chelsea have been linked with some top managerial names for the vacant job.

Luis Enrique and Julian Nagelsmann are said to be the two favourites to take over the club, while names like Mauricio Pochettino, Oliver Glasner and Marco Silva have also been linked to the role.

Ancelotti has now been linked with the job, with reports claiming in some quarters that he may be relieved of his duties at the end of the season.

Real Madrid will host Chelsea in the Champions League quarter-final clash next week Wednesday at the Santiago Bernabéu.
