How new Chelsea owners can keep Thomas Tuchel by following Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp example

Chelsea are at somewhat of a crossroad in their existence. For the best part of two decades, the club have risen to be powerhouses of the English game under owner Roman Abramovich. However, with the impending sale of the club, uncertainty remains over how the Blues will operate moving forward.

In fact, there’s been uncertainty for some time now since the Russian was sanctioned by the UK Government, leading to the club having to operate under a restrictive special licence from the UK Government. On the pitch, there are also questions over the current playing squad, with key figures such as Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen set to leave as free agents.

It leaves the club in a state of limbo but if there’s one man they need to guide them through it, it’s Thomas Tuchel. The German coach has already shown leadership in his interviews over the past couple of months to be a guiding light for supporters and staff alike, standing resilient in the face of existential threats.
