London, Mar. 4 : Chelsea are considering approaching West Ham manager Avram Grant to become their new director of football as part of a significant shake-up of the club's staff this summer.
Grant's future at West Ham United will be reviewed at the end of this season, and even if he avoids relegation, it is understood that it is far from certain he will stay despite signing a four-year deal last June, The Telegraph reports.
West Ham, who came close to sacking Grant and replacing him with Martin O'Neill in January, may decide that a parting of the ways is best for everyone given the difficulties of this campaign.
Returning to Chelsea - who offered Grant a job after he left Portsmouth last year - would allow the 56 year-old to remain in English football.
With the future of manager Carlo Ancelotti also in doubt, Chelsea are considering a number of options as to how the club will be run after the end of this season.
Grant's possible arrival is not linked to Ancelotti's future. The Italian has one more year on his contract after this season and has privately voiced his own unhappiness earlier in the campaign, after Wilkins was sacked, he has struggled as results turned bad. (ANI)
