Chelsea interim manager Roberto Di Matteo is expecting to be axed by the club even if he wins the Champions League.

The Italian, who guided the Blues to FA Cup glory last weekend, believes that the club's Roman Abramovich will overlook him in favour of a big name this summer.

However, The Sun claims to have heard from a "senior Chelsea source" that Di Matteo is determined to lead the club to victory over Bayern Munich on May 19.

The insider said: "Robbie is determined to go for glory against Bayern, even though he's resigned to leaving regardless of what happens in Munich.

"He has tried to talk to the club's hierarchy about pre-season training for next season and been given very short shrift. That convinced him he really is just an 'interim' manager, filling the post until a full-time appointment can be made."

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola, France boss Laurent Blanc and former England manager Fabio Capello have all been linked with the Chelsea hotseat.
