Chelsea are set to announce Lyon boss Sonia Bompastor as their new manager after the Champions League final this weekend.
Bompastor, 43, is lined up to replace Emma Hayes next season but is aiming to bow out at Lyon on a high in the Champions League final against Barcelona on Saturday.
The Blues have agreed to delay any announcement to avoid any distractions ahead of the showpiece match in Bilbao despite having an agreement with the French coach.
Bompastor’s assistant manager Camille Abily will also join her in west London.
