The 48-year-old oversaw proceedings back in February when Antonio Conte was recovering from gall bladder surgery back in Italy.
However, it was still very much the latter who was calling the shots at that time, which will not be the case for the final ten games of the season, with Stellini set to steer the ship.
The Italian has a whole host of injuries to contend with, with the likes of Yves Bissouma, Ryan Sessegnon, Rodrigo Bentancur, Ben Davies, Emerson Royal and Richarlison currently on the mend.
As a result, Stellini has seemingly called up several Under-21 stars to first-team training, with Maksim Paskotsi, Michael Craig, Alfie Devine, Dante Cassanova, Rio Kyerematen, Romaine Mundle and Jamie Donley being put through their paces.

The big issue is at wing-back, with Porro and Perisic being Stellini’s only two natural options.
The Italian could perhaps use Tanganga as a right wing-back if needed while he could also choose to be a little more adventurous and play Lucas as a wing-back if we are potentially chasing the game.
