Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri has claimed he's already started planning for next season with the Blues, despite the intense speculation still surrounding his future at the club.
It's been a less than ideal season for the west London side, whose new manager has struggled to embed his 'Sarriball' philosophy as quickly as he would have liked. After struggling to put together a consistent run of wins throughout the campaign, the club currently face an uphill struggle to qualify for next season's Champions League.
However, a top four finish is still within their grasp following back-to-back to victories, and winning the Europa League would also afford them a spot in the lucrative European competition.

"[Speculation] is not a big problem, the problem is the results. The rest is not important in this moment. I want to win for the team, for the club, not for me. So it's not important.
The former Napoli manager went on to discuss his ambitions for the rest of the season, and said: "
"But the Europa League is a very important competition. It is the second competition in Europe. It's a very important trophy, and then there is a spot for the next Champions League, so it's a very important target for us."
