Top Manager Feels Chelsea Move ‘A Good Option For Him’

It has been claimed that Brighton Boss Roberto Di Zerbi sees CHELSEA ‘as a good option’ for him ahead of a possible summer move

We have been credited with an interest in the former Shakhtar Donetsk head coach, with Mauricio Pochettino enduring disappointing campaigns at Stamford Bridge this season.

The former PSG and Tottenham boss has not impressed like many had hoped for and has failed to get these young players to gel together enough to challenge for a Champions League place, which is what the board have been hoping for.

And American owner Ted Boehly could be thinking about making a move for a new boss in the summer, and the Italian is very highly-rated in the game

And the Caughtoffside website have claimed that De Zerbi is said to be a top target for the club , and it is believed that the Italian feels Stamford Bridge is the “good option” for him.

De Zerbi recently spoke on being linked with managerial jobs elsewhere:

“I’ve worked in football for 30 years and I know if you’re playing well and if you’re doing well, the people speak about you and speak about the transfer market.

“I have the right experience to stay focused and to keep my eye only on Brighton. I have a contract and I love my players.

“For sure, we have to speak about the plan going forward because I work for the motivation.

“I’ve not spoken with Tony Bloom about the next target and the new plan, but in the next few days we will speak.”

Pundit Emmanuel Petit believes that Roberto De Zerbi would be the ideal candidate to step into the role if Mauricio Pochettino gets the sack.

“I hear critics about Mauricio Pochettino every week, do the fans want him sacked? It’s exhausting for the fans, players and staff to keep changing the manager. Restarting under a new coach again and again and again is tiring. Give time to Pochettino, CHELSEA need to stop signing and selling players.”

“If it comes to it, the only manager I can see replacing Pochettino is Roberto De Zerbi, De Zerbi lost half of his Brighton team and still played consistently with his ideologies and got his teams to play good football. If Chelsea are changing their players all the time, he can install a mentality in the club to play a certain way.”
