Is Julian Nagelsmann the Next Chelsea Manager? Latest Reports and Analysis

Julian Nagelsmann, the former Bayern Munich manager, has been linked as a potential successor to Graham Potter at Chelsea. However, sources suggest that the German coach, who recently left Bayern Munich and was replaced by former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel, is in no hurry to take up a new job. According to a report by Florian Pattenberg of Sky Sports Germany, Nagelsmann is on the shortlist for the vacant Tottenham manager’s position following Antonio Conte’s departure earlier this week.

Despite pressure on Potter, Chelsea Chairman Todd Boehly appears to be backing him in the short term, with the Blues heading towards their worst league finish since 1996. Only once before in the Premier League’s existence have they finished lower than their current position of eleventh—in 1993/94 when they finished fourteenth. They must now face Liverpool and Wolves in their next two league fixtures, before taking on Real Madrid in the first leg of their quarterfinal tie of the Champions League.
