Europe: Champions League final

The future of Chelsea coach Avram Grant has once again came under spotlight, with Barcelona's Frank Rijkaard tipped, once more, to replace him at the end of the season. This time the speculation over Grant's future was sparked by comments from the Israeli's close friend - Portsmouth player Richard Hughes. Hughes claimed Grant would be happy to move aside and let Rijkaard take over even though he has guided Chelsea to the final of the Champions League and to the brink of winning the domestic league crown. Hughes insisted: "This will take place with Avram's blessing. He is a modest guy who does not particularly like being in the limelight. He'd be happy to revert to the role where he acts as a link between the coaching staff and the board. He is not in it for personal glory and could go about his business outside of the limelight."
