SARRI TO SLEEP ON BLUES JOB

MAURIZIO SARRI plans to live at Chelsea’s training ground when he joins the club as their new manager this week.

The ex-Napoli boss is expected to sign a two-year deal, with the option for a third, in the next 24 hours.

And the Italian, 59, (right) will base himself at Cobham as he remoulds his squad before the first-team players return for pre-season on July 9.

Juventus defender Daniele Rugani could join the Blues for £25million. And Inter Milan want Davide Zappacosta as part of any move for midfielder Matias Vecino.

Chelsea are still to settle compensation for outgoing coach Antonio Conte and the case could end in court.
