Sky Journalist Angelo Mangiante has now told Chelsea who they should hire to replace Mauricio Pochettino if he is sacked.
He took to Twitter to state that the Blues should look to Luciano Spalletti if they need to bring in a new manager in the near future.
Spalletti is currently in charge of Italy, with him having the chance to defend their title of European champions at the end of this season.
His most recent spell in club football was extremely successful, winning the league as Napoli manager.
The drop off has been clear to see in Serie A this season for them, with them nowhere near the heights they had hit.
Mangiante has told Chelsea that he would be the perfect figure to take over at Stamford Bridge should the opportunity arise.
Chelsea told to hire Spalletti
He said: “Hello my friend, some thoughts on the topic…. Luciano Spalletti is one of the best managers in the world. Organized, spectacular and winning football. A great worker in the field. Another category compared to Pochettino.

“He is the best manager possible to make Chelsea great again. Personally, I hope he helps Italy win again, but then when he returns to coach a club, Chelsea would also be the best club for him to win big titles.”
Another clear link the Blues have with Napoli right now is Victor Osimhen, with them seen by many as the favourites to strike a deal for him at the end of this season.
Obviously, Spalletti has experience working with the striker, and he definitely is the manager who has got the best out of him in his career.
Considering it will be a big fee to bring him in, there may be an appetite to have someone in charge they know he will be a star under for years to come.
