If anything, the former Blues boss' stock is higher than when he left the club in 2011. Many think Ancelotti wasn't given a fair crack in the job the first time round as he was dismissed a little over two years after being appointed and he would be keen to get it right a second time round.

Abramovich gave Jose Mourinho another chance to win the Champions League so it wouldn't be a surprise if Carlo, who delivered a Premier League, FA Cup and Charity Shield during his first spell, returned.
