Chelsea to make final decision on next manager with two options left
Chelsea is about to pick their next manager, and they have narrowed their options down to two top candidates: Enzo Maresca of Leicester City and Thomas Frank of Brentford.
This decision comes after the club discontinued their interest in Kieran McKenna, after his outstanding performances with Ipswich Town.
According to sources, Chelsea met with McKenna last week. Although the club valued his tactical prowess and progress in leading Ipswich to consecutive promotions, they ultimately decided to look into other options.
The Blues’ management are now focusing on Maresca and Frank as potential successors to Mauricio Pochettino, who left Stamford Bridge last week.
Enzo Maresca, who is currently the manager of Leicester City, has emerged as a popular choice among Chelsea’s sporting directors.
His strategy and vision for the team are consistent with the club’s goals, making him an appealing contender.
Maresca’s brief but important coaching career at Parma, as well as his present role with Leicester, have proven his ability to lead a strong Premier League team.
Brentford’s Thomas Frank, on the other hand, offers an intriguing alternative. Frank is known for his tactical versatility and capacity to maximize team potential, and he has a track record of achieving great outcomes with limited resources.
His style of leadership caught the interest of Chelsea’s decision-makers, presenting him as an appealing option.
Meanwhile, Brighton’s Roberto De Zerbi has been connected with the post, but he is not presently regarded as an option.
The club’s management is keen to finalize their choice promptly, with an official announcement expected soon.
As Chelsea fans eagerly await the decision, the club remains steadfast in their pursuit of a manager who can restore their competitive edge.
Whether it’s Maresca or Frank, the Blues are poised to embark on a new chapter under fresh leadership.
