On Sunday evening, Chelsea FC officially announced that the team and manager Graham Potter are parting ways.
The London Blues are only in 11th place in the Premier League table, Saturday’s 2-0 defeat against Aston Villa was the last straw.
“Chelsea FC would like to thank Graham for his efforts and wish him all the best for the future” – says the club’s statement.
Graham Potter took over the management of the team in September after Thomas Tuchel and Zsolt Lőw were fired, he sat on the team’s bench in 38 matches, with 17 wins, 9 draws and 12 losses.

Of course, after the dismissal of the English coach, speculation started immediately as to who could be the next head coach of the West Londoners.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann, who was fired less than a week ago, is Todd Boehly’s number one target, but Mauricio Pochettino and Luis Enrique have also been mentioned as possible options.
However, according to a significant group of Chelsea fans, José Mourinho should be brought back to the place of his former successes in order for the club to regain its long-lost identity.
A 60-year-old professional he was previously on the Blues’ bench twice, in his first period from June 2004 to September 2007 he won the English league title twice, as well as the FA Cup, League Cup (twice) and the Community Shield. The Portuguese’s second reign, which ran from June 2013 to December 2015, saw him win the Premier League for a third time and another League Cup success.
So far, we have no information on whether the management will listen to the fans’ request, which is certain because Mourinho is currently the head coach of AS Roma, and his contract ties him to the Italian capital until the summer of 2024.
