Chelsea 'close' to appointing new manager after Enzo Fernandez gives Todd Boehly green light

Chelsea are apparently a step closer towards finally appointing a permanent successor to Graham Potter. Frank Lampard was recently appointed caretaker manager until the end of the season, while Todd Boehly continues his search for a new head coach.

Julian Nagelsmann, Luis Enrique and Zinedine Zidane have all been heavily linked with filling the vacancy at Stamford Bridge. Mauricio Pochettino, Jose Mourinho and Carlo Ancelotti have also been name-checked in relation to the position, though the latter has ruled himself out.
