An unlikely candidate has emerged in the conversation to become the next permanent Chelsea manager. After sacking Graham Potter seven months into his five year contract on Sunday the search is on to appoint a coach before the Champions League quarter-final away leg against Real Madrid.
Julian Nagelsmann is the favourite to takeover at Stamford Bridge with co-sporting directors Christopher Vivell and Paul Winstanley keen on the young German. He was only sacked last week at Bayern Munich but is the early man tipped to be in the hot seat next.
Elsewhere former Spain and Barcelona boss Luis Enrique is in the conversation after making his desire to manage in England clear. Mauricio Pochettino is also in the mix having been interviewed for the job post Thomas Tuchel back in September.
