Chelsea have reportedly agreed to pay former manager Andre Villas-Boas £12m in compensation following his sacking last season.
The 34-year-old, who joined from Porto, was dismissed in March after just eight months in charge as the club's form suffered under his guidance.
The Portuguese is now free to take another job after agreeing the settlement, according to the Daily Mail.
Villas-Boas has recently been linked with the managerial vacancy at Italian club Roma.
