Porto coach Andre Villas-Boas looks set to join Chelsea following the sacking of Carlo Ancelotti in May.<\/p>\n

The 33-year-old Villas-Boas guided Porto to the Europa League title last season.<\/p>\n

The Portuguese has a clause in his contract that allows him to leave Porto should another club offer \u00a313.2m for his services.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Porto said they had yet to receive an offer that activated the release clause.<\/p>\n

Porto also clinched a domestic double under Villas-Boas last season, winning the league and the league cup.<\/p>\n

Guus Hiddink has also been linked with a return to Chelsea, where he won the FA Cup as a caretaker manager in 2009.<\/p>\n

Villas-Boas, who speaks fluent English, was a scout for Mourinho at both Chelsea and at Inter Milan.<\/p>\n

He also worked with Bobby Robson during the former England manager’s spell in charge of Porto.<\/p>\n

Porto ended the past season unbeaten in the domestic championship with 27 wins in 30 matches, becoming only the second Portuguese club to finish a league season unbeaten, after Benfica in 1972-73.<\/p>\n
