Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly has been urged to land Zinedine Zidane as next head coach to make a "statement" after dismissing Graham Potter. The latter was in charge for seven months at Stamford Bridge, but poor results have left the Blues looking for a replacement.
For former defender Glen Johnson, Boehly's perceived "lack of knowledge" in football is costing the club as he told DAZNbet: "Well these football owners nowadays are extremely businessmen and definitely intelligent, but they aren’t super intelligent with everything they do. They have a select skillset, but for someone who hasn’t been in football for very long, like Boehly, you would have thought he would build a team around him who has that experience.
"We don’t know who has pulled the plug, but I cannot imagine it would be just one man. Any top team would want Thomas Tuchel, they’d bite their arm off to have him. And it was Boehly’s first order of business to let him go. We know as soon as he bought the club, he didn’t want him there, because there simply wasn’t enough time for them to have fallen out."
