Rosenior previously managed Hull City in the Championship before taking over at Strasbourg
Liam Rosenior has flown to London to finalise his expected appointment as Chelsea head coach.
As BBC Sport reported on Thursday, Strasbourg boss Rosenior is the leading candidate to replace Enzo Maresca, who has left Stamford Bridge.
Talks to appoint Rosenior are at an advanced stage, and the 41-year-old is in the capital to complete formalities before he is named as Maresca's successor.
BlueCo – the investment vehicle set up to purchase Chelsea in 2022 – has started the process of identifying candidates to replace Rosenior at sister club Strasbourg.
