Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang "scared" by Graham Potter's arrival after Thomas Tuchel sack

Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga has spoken of the shock felt by teammate Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang when Thomas Tuchel was sacked as manager and replaced by Graham Potter.

Aubameyang mentioned Tuchel's importance when signing for the Blues, suggesting he was excited to work with the manager again after thriving under him at Borussia Dortmund several years ago. However, the German boss was gone within a week of those comments, after losing at Dinamo Zagreb in what was the former Barcelona striker's debut for Chelsea.

While he has opened up again on the relationship he has with Tuchel, the Gabonese striker appears optimistic about the new manager. Still, at least according to Kepa, it seems he needed a bit of time to adjust to the news.
