4 candidates for Chelsea's coach position

Chelsea is currently experiencing a period of instability after undergoing a change in ownership. In the Premier League, they are currently in 11th place with 39 points after 31 matches. Additionally, the team was eliminated from the Champions League in the quarterfinals, losing to Real Madrid with a total score of 0-4. The top priority for Chelsea's owners is to find a high-quality coach who can help the team regain their form.

1. Vincent Kompany

According to the source, Chelsea is showing interest in Vincent Kompany. The London club was impressed with the former Manchester City star during his first season as manager of Burnley, where he helped them gain promotion. As a result, Chelsea has included Kompany in a shortlist of four candidates who are capable of taking on the manager role at Stamford Bridge.

Vincent Kompany

Kompany is highly regarded for his skill in deploying an attacking style of play at Turf Moor. In other words, Burnley consistently finds ways to score in any situation on the field under his leadership. Kompany's role in helping Burnley gain promotion has also solidified his position among the group of talented young managers in English football.

2. Julian Nagelsmann

Julian Nagelsmann has recently been dismissed from his position as manager of Bayern Munich and is expected to take a few months off before returning to coaching. Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has reported that the owners of Chelsea are fond of this young coach. After meeting with Chelsea's sporting directors, Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley, Julian Nagelsmann was judged to have the strongest chance of impressing. Furthermore, the German coach has also received support from Behdad Eghbali, one of Chelsea's co-owners.

However, Nagelsmann's dismissal from Bayern Munich was due to his poor performance and inability to manage the dressing room, which included many strong personalities and experienced players. This has caused some concern for Chelsea, and as a result, the club has not yet made a decision regarding his potential appointment as manager.

3. Mauricio Pochettino

Mauricio Pochettino is also considered a strong candidate for the managerial position at Stamford Bridge. Teams under Pochettino's leadership are known for playing attractive football, and he possesses the charisma and energy required to lead a top team.

Before appointing Graham Potter, the Stamford Bridge team had previously inquired about the Argentinian strategist, which indicates that Pochettino is seen as a strong contender who could compete with Nagelsmann. In discussions with Chelsea, the former PSG coach presented his long-term plans and made a positive impression.

4. Luis Enrique

Coach Luis Enrique has recently had his first working sessions with the owners of Chelsea. The former captain of Spain mainly discussed his plan to establish a ball control system for "The Blues". Additionally, the former Barcelona coach stated that he would prioritize the utilization of young players if he were to be selected as the manager of the London club.

However, Luis Enrique's high salary demands and limited proficiency in English are seen as potential drawbacks. It has been reported that the coach has also lost interest in taking over at Chelsea.
