While waiting for Liam Rosenior, who has confirmed his arrival at the Blues, Chelsea will continue with an internal solution for a few more days. Already in charge during the draw against Manchester City on Sunday (1-1), Calum McFarlane, the Blues’ U21 coach, will once again lead the first team against Fulham this Wednesday. A prolonged interim, while waiting for the situation to settle definitively behind the scenes, reports Sky Sports.
At the same time, discussions have progressed well with Liam Rosenior. The current Strasbourg coach had positive discussions with the London leaders on Monday and all that is missing is his signature. The Englishman could be named Chelsea manager in time for Saturday’s FA Cup match against Charlton Athletic. Owner of the two clubs, BlueCo wishes to secure the arrival of a new coach in Strasbourg before formalizing the departure of Rosenior.
