Chelsea have a four man shortlist of names being considered to replace Graham Potter as the club's next head coach, according to reports. The Blues broke ties with the 47-year-old on Sunday night after losing 2-0 to Aston Villa 24-hours earlier.
It is already the second time that Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital have dismissed a manager at Stamford Bridge despite only taking over in May 2022. With the mass turnover of staff from the top down within the club the next appointment is likely to take much longer to decide upon.
Chelsea acted swiftly back in September to replace Thomas Tuchel with Potter, appointing the former Brighton head coach within 48 hours of removing the German from his post. With no such league jeopardy at stake and the pressure of mounting frustration and distrust from within the fanbase there is added scrutiny on the next moves from the top of the hierarchy.
