Maresca, 44, took charge of the Foxes in June 2023 and guided them back to the Premier League by winning the Championship at the first attempt.
But it looks increasingly likely that the Italian tactician will make the switch to Stamford Bridge and sign a five-year deal.

Maresca, who served his coaching apprenticeship under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, is likely to cost Chelsea between £8m-£10m in compensation and leaves Leicester in need of a new boss.
But who will get the Foxes job?
Carlos Corberan is the early frontrunner at Evens with talkSPORT bet after a productive couple of years at West Brom.

Corberan, who has worked under Pep Guardiola and Marcelo Bielsa, guided his side to a fifth-placed finish in the Championship this season - amassing nine more points than last season with plenty of off-field troubles to contend with.
Graham Potter is next at 6/1, although he's odds-on favourite for a sensational return to Brighton to replace Roberto De Zerbi.
David Moyes is offered at 10/1 having left West Ham. He's followed by free agent Steve Cooper and De Zerbi at 14/1 with talkSPORT BET.
Elsewhere the betting market features Luton Town's Rob Edwards and Jesse Marsch at 14/1, ahead of 16/1 duo Will Still and Middlesbrough's Michael Carrick.
