Chelsea boss could lose his job at the end of the season. What will it depend on?
Chelsea were held to a 1–1 draw by Burnley a few days ago, and speculation has since intensified that the London club’s manager could be shown the door.
Details: According to Topskills Sports UK, Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior could be relieved of his duties if he fails to guide the Blues into the top four and secure qualification for the UEFA Champions League. The club’s hierarchy reportedly view a return to Europe’s elite competition as essential as Chelsea continue their rebuilding project.
Rosenior joined Chelsea in January this year and has overseen eight wins from 12 matches, suffering just two defeats — both against Arsenal.
A daunting Premier League run-in awaits Chelsea, with fixtures against Arsenal, Aston Villa, Newcastle, Everton, Manchester City and Manchester United on the horizon.
Reminder: 26-year-old Chelsea defender Trevoh Chalobah could leave the Blues this summer, with a move to another club possible in the upcoming transfer window.
