Chelsea of the English Premier League have fired their coach Graham Potter.
This was announced by the London club on Sunday (April 2nd, 2023). The day before, the “Blues” lost 2-0 at home to Aston Villa. They are only eleventh in the table.
In the Champions League, however, Potter led the team to the quarter-finals where they meet Real Madrid. Chelsea knocked out Borussia Dortmund in the round of 16.
Barely seven months in office
Just under seven months ago, Graham took over from Thomas Tuchel, who is now under contract with the German record champions Bayern Munich. As an interim coach, Bruno Saltor will initially look after the team led by national player Kai Havertz.
