Frank Arnesen is to become the Godfather of Chelsea - making Frank Rijkaard a red-hot tip to be the next boss. Arnesen will be promoted to director of football by Roman Abramovich and given a major say on appointing the next manager - with Guus Hiddink insisting he WILL go back to managing the Russian national team. And that makes Dutch legend Rijkaard, out of work since leaving Barcelona a year ago, a big favourite for the Blues hot-seat ahead of AC Milan chief Carlo Ancelotti. Insiders reveal that Arnesen was pushing for Rijkaard when Avram Grant left last summer, but the Dut chman wanted a year-long break from the game. Arnesen wanted to team up with Rijkaard a year ago before Luiz Felipe Scolari came in and Hiddink had to rescue their season. Arnesen went to Chelsea from Tottenham in a controversial move and has progressed behind the scenes from chief scout to the director who looks after their expensive youth programme. But now Abramovich and his aides have reviewed the set-up and decided to promote Arnesen to an even more senior position that will see him have a large input in signings and finding a new boss. Abramov i ch has listened to several people after a tough year at Stamford Bridge and he has now opted to back Arnesen - with some other noses likely to be pushed out of joint. The former Spurs coach is rated highly and will have a new contract out of this shake-up. Some had tipped him to go during a recent period of cutbacks and checks on the progress of the club's young signings that he had overseen.

ROMAN ABRAMOVICH will order a ruthless summer purge of Chelsea's pensioners. The billionaire owner wants a clear-out of the club's ageing stars — including Michael Ballack, Didier Drogba and Deco. The Stamford Bridge squad includes eight players aged over 30 with only Frank Lampard and Ricardo Carvalho from that group safe. Abramovich knows a £35million exit of the oldies is the only way to create space for some fresh, young talent.A source close to Abramovich admitted: "This looks like being the third year in a row Chelsea have failed to win the title and that's not good enough. "Roman believes it is time to revitalise the squad so there'll be quite a few of the thirty- somethings sold and the money used on younger stars with the skills to make a difference." Lampard and Carvalho remain key figures so are unlikely to be sold. But the future of Drogba is in doubt with the strikers wanted by Manchester City and Inter Milan. Ballack and Deco (right) will also be vulnerable after disappointing this season, while Juliano Belletti, Paolo Ferreira and Hilario look sure to leave. Chelsea will also listen to offers for Florent Malouda, Branislav Ivanovic and Salomon Kalou. http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/sport/2183...at-Chelsea.html

Ricardo Quaresma could be used to fund Inter’s renovation in exchange for either Ricardo Carvalho or Bruno Alves. The Portuguese winger was brought in under the strict instructions of Jose Mourinho just before the end of the summer transfer market, but was a flop and has been loaned to Chelsea. Now the Nerazzurri plan to at least recoup some of the £20m spent by using him to lure a new defender to San Siro. Once again Mourinho is reportedly looking for a Portuguese international and has set his sights on Chelsea’s Ricardo Carvalho. According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, Quaresma would be used as bait to release Carvalho from Stamford Bridge. Quaresma could also be offered to his former club Porto in order to bring in Bruno Alves. Newspapers in Italy today suggest that Mourinho has set out a list of changes to bring Inter Champions League success, but it would cost around £70m. http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/mar14i.html

The media are shit mixing bastards

Chelsea are ready to open talks with Inter Milan over a permanent deal for Ricardo Quaresma. The London Evening Standard says Quaresma joined Chelsea on loan for the rest of the season in January after struggling to settle at the Italian club. The 25-year-old set up the winning goal for Didier Drogba against Portsmouth and also crossed for Alex to score the second in the win at Coventry. The Portuguese international, who is ineligible to play against Juventus in the Champions League tomorrow night because he is cup-tied, has also settled in quickly with his new team-mates and is highly-rated in the dressing room.

<h2 class="padding-bottom-7" style="font-size: 1.05em; line-height: 1.05em;"> SALOMON KALOU is willing to stay at Chelsea despite saying he wants to join Arsenal. </h2> Chelsea winger Kalou was approached by Arsene Wenger last summer and he claimed it would be a "dream" to play for the Gunners. But the Ivorian said: "I am very happy at Chelsea. "For the moment, I'm playing well and I don't see why I would be leaving. "There are two years left on my contract and I'm happy at Stamford Bridge. "Everyone supports me - the fans, my team-mates and the staff. "So I don't see why people have been worried."
