Chelsea agree deal with manager for next season 🤝 Chelsea is very close to deciding on its next head coach. According to BBC and The Athletic, Xabi Alonso will take over the role next season. He is expected to sign a four-year contract.
According to journalist David Ornstein, Alonso visited London last week, and the announcement of his appointment should be made soon. The coach’s last job was at Real Madrid. He stayed in the role for just over six months and was dismissed in January.
The Spaniard rose to prominence while managing Bayer Leverkusen in the 2023/24 season, when the club won the Bundesliga and the German Cup unbeaten. Alonso arrives after a turbulent year in charge of the English club’s coaching staff. Enzo Maresca was sacked on January 1 of this year, just a few months after winning the Club World Cup.
