Chelsea are continuing their search for a new manager after they sacked Graham Potter following a disappointing six-month spell at Stamford Bridge. The Blues are considering a number of candidates including Julian Nagelsmann, Luis Enrique and Mauricio Pochettino.
Nagelsmann has emerged as the front-runner for the vacant Chelsea head coach role, football.london understands, but Todd Boehly will not rush the process of appointing a successor to lead the club forward. Both the former Bayern Munich boss and Enrique have held talks with Chelsea representatives in London this month.
Frank Lampard was appointed as caretaker manager earlier this month but results have failed to improve as the Blues have lost their first four games under the 44-year-old. football.london understand that Nagelsmann is admired by the club's ownership group and they feel he has the attributes to match their long-term ambitions.
