Former Barcelona, Paris Saint-Germain and Brazil left-back Maxwell is reportedly on a four-man shortlist to replace Marina Granovskaia as Chelsea ’s sporting director.
Granovskaia, who had first become the club’s chief executive in 2014, departed the club officially earlier this month following the sale of the club to American Todd Boehly by Roman Abramovich, with chairman Bruce Buck and technical and performance advisor Petr Cech also announcing their exits in recent days.
Reports have claimed that the Blues have drawn up a four-man shortlist of candidates to replace the Russian-Canadian 47-year-old in the role and the Maxwell’s name is believed to be one that is on the club’s wishlist.
