Kean set to snub Chelsea approach
19 January 2008
However Kean has stressed he is "happy" with his role at the Ricoh Arena, where he is number two to manager Chris Coleman, and does not expect to move.
He confirmed: "There was contact made from someone acting on behalf of Mr Scolari and when the contact came in I made Ray Ranson, our chairman at Coventry, and Chris Coleman aware of it straight away."
The Scot had a playing spell with Coimbra in Portugal and understands the language, which could be useful if Chelsea are looking for a British coach to work alongside Brazilian Scolari.
But Kean does not expect the approach to result in a move to Stamford Bridge.
He told BBC Radio Scotland: "I don't think so, because the chairman has stated that I've got a contract and I'm happy with the project we've got at Coventry."
