Chelsea on brink of ten Cate deal

CHELSEA are on the brink of reaching an agreement with Henk ten Cate to join their coaching staff.

Ten Cate quit his post at Ajax earlier this week after Chelsea agreed a compensation figure with the Dutch club for his services.

Chelsea now expect to finalise the deal within the next 24 hours in order for Ten Cate to take up his role under head coach Avram Grant and alongside assistant Steve Clarke.
