Ex Bayern Munich coach, Julian Nagelsmann set to become Chelsea coach after meeting with board

Since Graham Potter was fired as Chelsea's manager, Julian Nagelsmann has become a top candidate.

Potter has resigned from his position as Chelsea's head coach, the West London club has announced.

After Saturday, April 1's 2-0 defeat of Chelsea against Aston Villa in the Premier League, Graham Potter has been fired as Chelsea's head coach.

If you remember, the 47-year-old replaced Thomas Tuchel by moving from Brighton Hove Albion to Chelsea in September.

Potter, who committed to a five-year contract with the team, had a successful first nine games at Chelsea.

Nevertheless, Chelsea's performance in the Premier League has declined, and as a result, the Blues have fallen to 11th position in the standings.

The English coach's loss against Aston Villa on Saturday at Stamford Bridge was sufficient for Todd Boehly to fire him.

Who will become Chelsea's next coach? 

In the meanwhile, Julian Nagelsmann is the front-runner to succeed Graham Potter as Chelsea's head coach.

Fabrizio Romano claims that the former Bayern Munich coach is now in the lead for the position of future Chelsea manager.

Nagelsmann was brought up yesterday during internal conversations during a meeting with Chelsea's administration, Fabrizio said.

If you remember, Bayern Munich fired Julian Nagelsmann last week during the international break.

While on vacation, the former RB Leipzig coach learned that he had been fired. Thomas Tuchel, a former Chelsea head coach, has taken his position.

The management of Bayern Munich feels that Julian Nagelsmann failed to manage certain players with large egos in the locker room.
