Luis Enrique 'disappointed' by Chelsea manager decision after holding talks with Todd Boehly

Luis Enrique was left 'disappointed' by Todd Boehly's decision to appoint Frank Lampard as caretaker manager at Chelsea until the end of the season. football.london reported earlier this month that Enrique was in London to hold talks with the Blues about becoming their new head coach.

Enrique emerged as a candidate to replace Graham Potter after the former Chelsea boss was sacked following a poor run of results after replacing Thomas Tuchel earlier in the season. The Blues' form has failed to improve after Lampard's appointment until the end of the current campaign, losing all three games under the club legend so far.

football.london understands that Julian Nagelsmann is a serious contender to replace Potter but that the German would prefer to wait until the summer to become the new manager. Reports claimed that the former Bayern Munich boss has also been given the chance to hold talks with the Blues over their vacant manger position but a decision will not be rushed despite results failing to improve under Lampard.
