Ex-Flamengo man Filipe Luís on the radar of English giants 🎯 Former Flamengo coach Filipe Luís is on Chelsea’s radar for 2026/27. The Brazilian is not Plan A, but he is on the shortlist. According to journalist Ben Jacobs , Xabi Alonso (formerly of Real Madrid) is the priority.
There have already even been initial talks between them. FOUR other names are also on the English giant’s radar. One of them is Filipe Luís — who has been without a club since leaving Fla on March 3.
The other names are Marco Silva (Fulham), Oliver Glasner (Crystal Palace), and Andoni Iraola (set to leave Bournemouth). Chelsea are in freefall in the Premier League, with one win in their last 11 matches. As a result, the club — which had been in the top six for virtually the entire competition — are now only ninth, with 49 points.
Chelsea need to win their last two games (and hope their rivals slip up) to secure a place in the Conference League or, at best, the Europa League. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here.
