And then there were two.
The ongoing saga that is Chelsea's search for a new manager seems to be nearing an end after two of the four main candidates were taken out of the picture last week. A deal for boss Julian Nagelsmann seemed to be nearing after the club's representatives flew to Germany for talks, only for the former Bayern Munich boss to step away from negotiations over concerns as to whether he had a 'solid project' on his hands.
Talks had also previously been held with Luis Enrique, but the ex-Barcelona and Spain manager pulled out of the running on Friday. So the battle for the hot seat at Stamford Bridge now appears a straight shoot out between two names all too familiar to English football fans.
