Chelsea’s new ownership fired manager Thomas Tuchel on Wednesday morning, the day after the powerful English soccer club’s latest disappointing result.
“As the new ownership group reaches 100 days since taking over the Club, and as it continues its hard work to take the club forward, the new owners believe it is the right time to make this transition,” the team said in a statement.
“Chelsea’s coaching staff will take charge of the team for training and the preparation of our upcoming matches as the Club moves swiftly to appoint a new head coach. There will be no further comment until a new head coach appointment is made.
