Report: There is no chance 49-year-old manager replaces Graham Potter at Chelsea, he won't join them
Reports have claimed that there is no chance that Thomas Tuchel replaces Graham Potter as the manager at Chelsea.
According to The Athletic, the requirement to communicate with the hierarchy at the club is something that simply doesn’t mesh with his managerial style.
The former Brighton boss is under immense pressure at Stamford Bridge, after overseeing one of the worst runs of form the club have endured in the Premier League.
Defeat last weekend will have almost certainly seen the end of his time at the club, and the game saw him roll the dice with his system against Leeds United.
Potter elected for a back three, and the leadership by example of Wesley Fofana helped inspire the Blues to a rare win.
The victory is only a temporary ease of pressure at Stamford Bridge, with them now looking ahead to the biggest game of the season tonight against Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League.
Tuchel won’t join Chelsea
Many names have already been linked with the hotseat should Todd Boehly make the decision to remove Potter from his post.
Luis Enrique is one candidate who is reportedly keen on taking the job, as he looks to get back in the managerial game.
There will be some fans wondering why contact isn’t being made regarding a return for Tuchel, given everything he achieved at Stamford Bridge.
However, The Athletic have clarified that the 49-year-old would simply not return to the club given the regime of the current ownership.
There are hopes from the owners that Potter sees out his bad run of form and turns things around at Stamford Bridge.
Nevertheless, defeat tonight against Dortmund will likely see supporters completely run out of patience with the manager, and demand a replacement join the club.
