BANKER MANAGER ... Guardiola is in line to be highest-paid boss in world
ROMAN ABRAMOVICH is ready to hand super-coach Pep Guardiola a four-year deal worth £40million AFTER TAX to become Chelsea boss.
The club's billionaire Russian owner refuses to give up on his quest to lure Barcelona's all-conquering manager.
And that includes making Guardiola the highest-paid boss in the world with a money-no-object offer worth £10m a year in cash, according to one Blues insider.
Guardiola's Nou Camp deal is up at the end of the season and Abramovich will not call off the chase while the manager leaves his future up in the air.
He currently earns around £8m a year NET at Barca but Rom can eclipse that with his staggering offer.
Sacked Andre Villas-Boas was paid about £4.5m a year and Chelsea coughed up £13m compensation to his previous club Porto to release him last summer.
