Ray Wilkins was appointed as Chelsea's new assistant first-team coach on Thursday following Steve Clarke's move to London rivals West Ham.

Former England midfielder Wilkins began his career at Stamford Bridge and, while still a teenager, captained Chelsea as a teenager before moving to Manchester United.

This will be the 52-year-old's second coaching spell with the club, having previously worked under former manager Gianluca Vialli.

Now he will assist Luiz Felipe Scolari after Clarke decided to join up with Gianfranco Zola, another former Chelsea player, at West Ham.
