Chelsea are reportedly considering Roberto De Zerbi from Brighton and Ruben Amorim from Sporting CP as potential replacements for head coach Mauricio Pochettino. Despite recent struggles, the club plans to review Pochettino's position at the end of the season and remains supportive.
De Zerbi, also a target for Liverpool and Barcelona, guided Brighton to a sixth-place finish last season. Amorim on the other hand, secured Sporting's Portuguese title in 2021 and could win another league title at the end of the 2023/24 season. Chelsea aim to be prepared if they decide to part ways with Pochettino, whose future depends on European qualification.
Pochettino, backed by the dressing room, has faced challenges due to various injuries this season. The club's search for alternatives aligns with De Zerbi's success with Brighton and Amorim's impact at Sporting. Notably, Pochettino's contract is for two years with an option for an additional year, hence the club would have to pay up if they break their relations with the Argentinian prematurely.
With other former managers including Conte and Mourinho available in the market, should Chelsea rather opt for someone more familiar? Let me know your thoughts...
