How much it will cost Chelsea to sack Graham Potter as Todd Boehly faces tough decision

Chelsea appointed Graham Potter as manager last year in September with Todd Boehly trusting the former Brighton boss to lead his long-term vision at Stamford Bridge. The Blues endured a difficult season on the pitch and currently sit 10th in the Premier League table.

Recent form has seen pressure build from supporters and last weekend's defeat to bottom of the league Southampton has only worsened the mood amongst fans. A number of potential candidates have emerged as Potter's successor should Boehly take the decision to sack the 47-year-old after just six months since his appointment.

Mauricio Pochettino is said to have rejected a proposal from the Blues whilst Zinedine Zidane has recently delivered a fresh verdict on his managerial future. football.london understands Boehly and Behdad Eghbali remain supportive of Potter - for now - and his job isn't under immediate threat.
