Julian Nagelsmann is the favourite to become the next permanent Chelsea manager, according to the bookmakers.
The Blues decided to sack Graham Potter on Sunday evening after losing 2-0 to Aston Villa on Saturday afternoon, a result that left them 11th in the current Premier League standings. The club's statement read: "Chelsea FC has announced that Graham Potter has departed the club.
"Graham has agreed to collaborate with the Club to facilitate a smooth transition. In his time with the club, Graham has taken us to the quarter-final of the Champions League, where we will face Real Madrid. Chelsea would like to thank Graham for all his efforts and contribution and wish him well for the future."
