Gazzetta dello Sport gives the latest news regarding the possibility of Javier Zanetti joining Jose Mourinho at Chelsea. Following a report from Sky yesterday suggesting that former Inter boss Mourinho has targeted the Nerazzurri captain for a role at Stamford Bridge. Gazzetta believes that much will depend on talks between the player and Erick Thohir. If Inter reach the Europa League there could be space for Zanetti in Walter Mazzarri’s squad. The Inter legend is currently being left out for technical reasons as he’s fully recovered from the injury which sidelined him for seven months last year. At Chelsea it’s believed that Mourinho will offer him a duel role as both a player and within the organistation as a sports director. What is not in doubt is that if Inter choose not to retain him Zanetti could well head to London and begin work with Mourinho and the Blues.
