Liam Rosenior has “verbally agreed” to become the next Chelsea manager.

The Strasbourg boss revealed he would travel to London and complete a deal to replace Enzo Maresca “in the next few hours”.

He said at a press conference at the Ligue 1 club on Tuesday morning. “I haven’t signed yet, I have agreed verbally with Chelsea.

“Everything is agreed it will probably go through in the next few hours.

“There are certain moments in your life where you have decisions that you can’t say no to. This (Strasbourg) for me is a club I would love for the rest of my life.

“But this opportunity for me is something I cannot turn down for many reasons.”
