After only seven months
According to English media reports, Chelsea FC has apparently released its technical director Christopher Vivell. Like “The Guardians“ reported, the former squad planner of the Bundesliga club RB Leipzig is said to have been put on leave after only seven months. The 36-year-old would therefore no longer fit into the concept of the personnel structure.
The co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart should take on more responsibility in the future. According to the report, you would have made a valuable contribution to finding a coach and signing Mauricio Pochettino as a coach.

Joe Shields and Kyle Macaulay were also brought in for scouting and recruitment, which raised questions about the purpose of Vivell’s role. He was only dismissed in October last year “due to different opinions” as technical director at RB Leipzig.
