Solskjaer has been linked with several roles since then but have chosen not to settle for less.

The 51-year-old was also expected to be announced as the Besiktas manager earlier this month having held talks with the Turkish side in January. But former Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst was instead appointed.

It, however, seems he could now replace Enzo Maresca at the King Power Stadium.

Maresca has joined Chelsea on a five-year contract, replacing Mauricio Pochettino.
