Exclusive: Former Spanish Coach Emerges as Surprise Contender for Chelsea Managerial Role

Graham Potter was fired and left the Chelsea bench. As the first pick, the recent coach of Bayern, Julian Nagelsmann, was mentioned, but according to everything, Luis Enrique has the advantage at the moment.

The legend of Spanish football has been out of action since the round of 16 of the World Cup in Qatar when Spain was eliminated by Morocco.

The former coach of Spain has announced on several occasions that he would like to try himself in the strongest league in the world – the Premier League.

Since Chelsea was left without a coach, the club’s management started looking for a new strategist.

Julian Nagelsmann emerged as the first candidate, but the German does not want to start a new project before the end of the current season. Among other things, he is still on Bayern’s payroll.

For this reason, Chelsea decided to turn to a new solution and now, according to foreign media reports, they want to start negotiations with Enrique.

Reportedly, the two-time European champion wants to resolve the issue of a new coach before the two-legged tie with Real Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, but it is unlikely to happen.
