Chelsea add ‘high profile’ mystery man to managerial shortlist alongside Kieran McKenna and Thomas Frank

Chelsea add high profile mystery man to their managerial shortlist

Chelsea will continue their pursuit of a new manager this week, and a few names have already emerged to succeed Mauricio Pochettino next season. The Argentine manager exited the club on mutual consent after leading them to a sixth-place finish.

His departure was baffling after the 52-year-old made amends when the season came to an end, but it felt like it was not enough to convince the board to keep the former Tottenham Hotspur head coach for another campaign.

Now, according to Football. London Cheslea have added a fourth candidate to their managerial shortlist. Still, the name is unknown and regarded as a high-profile mystery name. In contrast, others are Kieran McKenna, Enzo Maresca, and Thomas Frank, plus the latest on Ruben Amorim and Roberto De Zerbi.

The Chelsea hunt for managers will continue until the summer window, and it will be very complicated to find a head coach who has been highly rated. The aforementioned names will be assessed, and then the club will decide which is best suited to his squad.

If the club cannot decide on those head coaches, then it could turn to the mystery name, whose name has not been revealed, and it will be interesting to see who is ready to take the hot seat at Chelsea.

With the way Pochettino has groomed these young players and given them a season in the Premier League, these players will be primed to prove their worth, Thus whoever leads the team next season will have his work cut short and only have to test his system on the players.

Chelsea continue their search to replace Mauricio Pochettino.

Other injured players have also returned, so the next manager will have a fully functional squad for pre-season where he can test his system on them.
