SHOCKING NEWS: Coming From Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea Are On The Hunt For A New Manager After Parting Ways With Mauricio Pochettino And One Of The Best Coach Currently Agrees To Accept Job After Positive Talks With Blues Board. According To Respected Journalist Fabrizio Romano, Amorim Has Spoken With Chelsea And Is Very Interested In Taking The Job At Stamford Bridge. Title-Winning Coach Ready To Accept Job After Positive Talks With Blues Board.
Chelsea is on a determined quest to swiftly fill the managerial void left by Mauricio Pochettino’s departure. In the wake of Pochettino’s exit earlier this week, the club has diligently assessed numerous potential candidates, with Enzo Maresca, Kieran McKenna, and Thomas Frank emerging as prime contenders.
The recent departure of Roberto De Zerbi from Brighton, just days preceding Pochettino’s exit, has prompted the Seagulls to set their sights on similar managerial targets. This coincidence has provided Chelsea with an opportunity to explore the candidacy of another former Brighton coach.
Initially, Sebastian Hoeness and Girona’s Michel were also considered for the role, but subsequent evaluations have led to their exclusion. Consequently, Chelsea’s shortlist now comprises the initial trio of candidates alongside one additional mystery option.
Speculation surrounding the mystery contender has centered on Jose Mourinho and Thomas Tuchel, both of whom have previously enjoyed successful tenures at Chelsea, with Tuchel notably clinching the Champions League title. However, Sporting CP’s Ruben Amorim has emerged as a more probable candidate. Fresh from securing the Portuguese league title, Amorim, a youthful coach renowned for his possession-oriented approach, resonates well with Chelsea’s managerial aspirations.
Among the confirmed candidates, Maresca and McKenna have exhibited keen interest in the position. Nevertheless, McKenna finds himself courted by both Brighton and Manchester United. Concurrently, Leicester City’s current manager is reportedly eager to assume the mantle left by Pochettino.
Substantial headway is anticipated in Chelsea’s pursuit of a new manager in the imminent future. As per insights from London World’s Rahman Osman, the club is poised to unveil their selection within the forthcoming 48 hours, underscoring the proximity of a pivotal decision by Todd Boehly and the Chelsea board regarding the prospective stewardship at Stamford Bridge.
