The 44 year-old last managed Chelsea and guided them to the Champions League and FA cup before being dismissed in December 2012.

Di Matteo will be facing his former club when Chelsea visit the Veltins Arena in on November 25th, and the former Blues legend will be hoping for a similar performance last time round where Striker Huntelaar scored in a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.
