Julian Nagelsmann is the early front-runner to become Chelsea's next permanent head coach following Graham Potter's sacking.
football.london understands the German is a serious contender to replace Potter after the latter was sacked from his role on Sunday evening following his 11th defeat as head coach against Aston Villa just 24 hours before. Nagelsmann has been out of a job for just over a week after he was replaced at Bayern Munich by former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel.
Nagelsmann did an exceptional job at the Allianz Arena, leaving the iconic German stadium with a 71 per cent win-rate in all competitions. The 35-year-old won three major honours in just over one-and-a-half seasons with Bayern, with one Bundesliga title and two German Super Cup trophies.
