Chelsea set new manager appointment timeframe after Graham Potter exit as three in frame | Football | Sport

The 35-year-old was surprisingly sacked by the German giants at the end of last month, with former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel coming in as a replacement.

Nagelsmann won three trophies in 18 months at the Allianz Arena, yet it still wasn’t enough for him to keep his job.

Despite his young age, Chelsea are admirers.

But the report does say he’s reluctant to take over just yet, with the ex-Bayern, RB Leipzig and Hoffenheim manager keen to recharge the batteries in the wake of his sudden blow.

Mauricio Pochettino is another contender, too, with the Argentine still on the market following his departure from Paris Saint-Germain back in the summer.
