The German technical director Thomas Tuchel, recent winner of the European Champions League, today extended his contract with Chelsea of England for two years, to which he will be linked until June 2024.
Tuchel, 47, came to the London club in January after being fired from Paris Saint Germain, who had led him to the Champions League final in the 2019/20 season for the first time in their history.
In a few months, Chelsea straightened its sporting course and headed towards the conquest of its second “Orejona” after eliminating Atlético de Madrid, Real Madrid and Manchester City from the quarter-finals onwards.
In addition, under the leadership of Tuchel, the “Blues” played the final of the Cup of England, lost to Leicester City 1-0.
“I cannot dream of a better time to renew my contract. I am very happy to be part of the Chelsea family,” Tuchel said after signing.
“We are obviously very happy to keep Thomas for two more years and we look forward to further successes in the seasons to come,” said Marina Granovskaia, Chelsea CEO.
Before managing PSG, Tuchel served in the Bundesliga as coach of Mainz (2009-2014) and Borussia Dortmund (2015-2017).
