Chelsea have agreed to appoint Massimiliano Allegri on a four-year deal, according to reports.The Italian is currently manager of Juventus, and although he’s enjoying a fruitful career in Turin, he’s been tempted by Roman Abramovich to switch Serie A for the Premier League.

Allegri guided Juve to the league title last season and also the Champions League final, proving that he can produce in Europe as well as in domestic football.

Reports in Italy are claiming that the 48-year-old has agreed to a four-year deal in England worth £5.3million-a-season, and will take over from Guus Hiddink at the end of the season.

Hiddink took over as interim-manager after Jose Mourinho was sacked back in December.

Despite being contracted at Juve until 2017, Allegri feels he can’t turn this opportunity down as he’s always wanted to manage in England.
