Comment
Deschamps is not only the Captain of Juventus but also the French National Team, so he has tons of expirience at the highest level, he won his first Champions League medal for Marseille and signed for Juventus in 1995.

Proberly his most glorious moment in his playing career was when he lifted the World Cup as French Captain in Paris.

Chelsea have been linked now with Didier since early May, and quite recently, it appears that his transfer to Monaco, as now he is surplus to Juventus requirements, has hit a stumbling block which Vialli may just take advantage of.

With Di Matteo's rumoured return home to Italy's Serie A, Deschamps seems the obvious replacement.

He is also a great friend of " The Rock" Marcel Desailly, being Marcel's Best Man at his wedding and also a team mate of fellow Frenchmen Frank Leboeuf in the National side, he would be a integral part of the
"French Connection"

The speculation on Chelsea signing him has been covered in most of the daily rags as well as just about every football news site, so there just may be some truth in this !
