Mauricio Pochettino, who left PSG in the summer, and ex-Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane are two names that have been linked with the job.

According to Sky Sports News reporter Rob Dorsett, Brighton have allowed Chelsea to open talks with the Englishman over a potential move to Stamford Bridge.
