Carlo Ancelotti open to Chelsea return?

Carlo Ancelotti is open to a sensation return back to Chelsea provided the club offer him a permanent contract.

Recent reports have cited that the West London giants are preparing for the departure of Jose Mourinho, should he fail to earn a win over Liverpool in their next Premier League fixture.

According to The Mirror, Ancelotti would snub the prospect of managing the Blues on an interim basis for the remainder of the season.

However, he could entertain the idea of a second stint, if the club offer him a full-time deal.

The 56-year-old led the Blues to a league and cup double in the 2009/10 season, only to be relieved from his duties a year later.
