Former Chelsea manager Andre Villas-Boas is reportedly a contender to replace Unai Emery as head coach at Valencia.

The current boss of the Spanish side is due to come to the end of his contract in the summer and reports have been circulating over who could replace the 40-year-old.

It is believed that former Porto coach Villas-Boas could make a return to management with Valencia after a difficult period at Stamford Bridge, according to The Express.

The 34-year-old survived just nine months as Chelsea boss before being sacked by owner Roman Abramovich.
