According to multiple reports from England, Portugal national team coach Luiz Felipe Scolari will become Chelsea’s new manager on July 1. Scolari replaces interim manager Avram Grant, who was let go after leading Chelsea to the Champions League final and a second-place finish in the English Premier League.

Scolari guided his native Brazil to the 2002 World Cup championship before leading Portugal to the final of the 2004 European Championships.

What do you think of the hire? How excited are you by the possibility of Alex Ferguson and Scolari doing battle? Do you still think Avram Grant got a raw deal?
