“Chelsea FC has announced that Graham Potter has departed the club. Graham has agreed to collaborate with the Club to facilitate a smooth transition. In his time with the club, Graham has taken us to the quarter final of the Champions League, where we will face Real Madrid. Chelsea would like to thank Graham for all his efforts and contribution and wish him well for the future.”
Bruno Saltor will now be the interim headcoach of the club as they look for a new headcoach.
And now transfer guru, Fabrizio Romano has it that Julian Nagelsmann is the favorite to replace Potter.
He’s highly rated by the London club’s co-owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali.
The club has already approached the German about this offer and talks are ongoing.
There were also links to former Tottenham and PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino but Romano debunked the rumors.
🚨 Understand there have been already approaches for Julian Nagelsmann to be the new Chelsea head coach. Talks will continue to make final decision — but he’s the favorite. #CFC
