Who Is the Chelsea Manager Now?
After Lampard was fired at the beginning of last year, Thomas Tuchel was appointed to replace the club veteran. However, after nearly one year at the Blues, Tuchel was sacked after The Blue’s 1-0 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb.
Following the sacking of Thomas Tuchel on 8/9, Graham Potter has been announced as the new The Blue head coach with a five-year contract.
According to sources, new owner Todd Boehly acted swiftly to sack the German after a Champions League defeat to Dinamo Zagreb on Tuesday night. He aimed to quickly put a new Chelsea FC manager in place before the weekend Premier League encounter with Fulham.
The Stamford Bridge club confirmed that Potter has now been confirmed as Chelsea’s new manager in 2022 with a five-year contract having been signed.
Who Was Chelsea Manager Before Mourinho?
When Abramovich first came to Stamford Bridge in 2003, Claudio Ranieri was in control and immediately gave the Italian a sizable transfer budget.
The Blue had a fantastic season in 2003–04, coming in second place to Arsenal’s “Invincibles” in the league. The team also made it to the Champions League semifinals.
However, there was always the thought that Abramovich wanted someone with a bigger name. Thus, few people were shocked when Ranieri was fired in the summer of 2004.

Avram Grant
Following a poor start, Grant took over for Mourinho at the start of the 2007–2008 season.
Grant managed to lead The Blue to their first-ever Champions League final, where they are defeated by Manchester United on penalties. Although this team did not take home any trophy that season, they finished runners-up in the Premier League and the League Cup.
Roberto Di Matteo
Di Matteo, a club legend who played 166 times for the Blues, began working for the team in March 2012 temporarily. That summer, though, his role became official.
His quick success as a manager led to this. Chelsea’s first Champions League victory and sixth FA Cup victory under his direction were both successful.
While playing in the European Cup, the club experienced some of its most memorable moments. The turnaround they had against Napoli, the thrilling goal Fernando Torres scored against Barcelona at the Nou Camp or Didier Drogba’s game-winning penalty against Bayern Munich in the championship game were all examples.
José Mourinho
The “Special One” is Jose Mourinho, currently the most successful Chelsea manager.
The Portuguese manager was Abramovich’s first chosen manager after he fired Claudio Ranieri after the 2003–04 campaign.
Mourinho lived up to his reputation when he first arrived in England in 2004. He helped the Blues win their first league title in fifty years while only allowing 15 goals and suffering one loss throughout the entire season.
Long-term results demonstrated how intelligent this decision was. With just 15 goals allowed during the 2004–05 season, The Blue went on to win back-to-back Premier League titles.
His employment would mark the start of Chelsea’s dominance in English football. He is largely regarded as the best manager the team has ever had for this reason.
