The German was sacked as Londoners coach after the latest defeats. The German goes through the front door, in any case, after winning the Champions League, the European Super Cup and the Club World Cup with Stamford Bridge.
The era of Thomas Tuchel at Chelsea is over. The German was fired after the defeat against Dinamo Zagreb, Croatia, in the first date of the Champions League group stage.
The London team was not doing well. As well as the setback on their debut in continental competition, they had lost to Leeds and Southampton in the Premier League, a bad streak that ended up dooming the coach’s continuity.
A stage which, even if it ended in disappointment, was one of the most successful in the history of the Blues. The German coach arrived in January 2021 to replace Frank Lampard on the bench at Stamford Bridge, immediately achieving good results.
His impact on Chelsea was very profound. Immediately, the team increased their performance enormously and were once again a feared team in both England and Europe. The improvement continued to such an extent that the London side beat favorites Manchester City in the Champions League final.
“On behalf of everyone at Chelsea FC, the Club would like to formally express their thanks to Thomas and his team for all their hard work during his time at the Club. Thomas will rightfully have a place in Chelsea history after won the Champions League, Super Cup and Club World Cup in his time here,” the club said in a statement.
“As the new ownership group reaches 100 days since taking over the club and continues their hard work to take the club forward, the new owners believe the time is right to make this transition. Chelsea’s coaching staff will support the squad in training and preparing for our upcoming games as the club moves quickly to appoint a new head coach.”
Precisely, the departure of the Russian Roman Abramovich from the Chelsea property as well as the arrival of a new control group weakened Tuchel in his position, given the proximity of the Teutonic to the tycoon. Although he had a good relationship with the current owners, according to English media, the demands of American investors, led by Todd Boehly, were more important, which cost him his job.
