Chelsea Football Club is currently in the process of finding a new manager to lead the team in the upcoming season.
Recent reports suggest that the search has been narrowed down to three names, with Mauricio Pochettino emerging as the leading candidate on the shortlist.
However, one name that has been ruled out of contention is former Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann.
Chelsea not considering Nagelsmann?
According to sources, Nagelsmann was never considered internally as the favorite for the job and has been eliminated from the search.
Reports also suggest that there was some friction between the German coach and Chelsea officials during the interview process.
It is said that the club was determined to carry out a thorough due diligence on all of the candidates before making a decision, which led to repeated interviews and requests for information. This apparently caused some resentment on Nagelsmann’s part, and ultimately led to his elimination from the search.
Chelsea committed
Despite this setback, Chelsea remains committed to finding the best possible candidate to lead the team forward. With Pochettino emerging as the leading candidate, the club’s fans and supporters will no doubt be eagerly anticipating an official announcement from Chelsea regarding their new manager in the coming weeks.
