Chelsea take decision on bringing Tuchel back

Chelsea hierarchy have ruled out the decision to bring back Thomas Tuchel to Stamford Bridge as they continue to show support for Graham Potter.

Potter has come under massive pressure at Stamford Bridge following his side’s 1-0 Premier League shock to Southampton last weekend.

Chelsea are currently seated at the 10th spot in the Premier League table with 11 points behind fourth-placed Tottenham.

Fans and some football pundits have been calling on Chelsea to sack Potter after the Southampton defeat.

Some Chelsea supporters also called Tuchel’s name during games this season, with some believing the decision to sack him was a wrong move.

However, Chelsea’s hierarchy are said to be standing behind Potter and believe he is the right coach to improve the situation at Stamford Bridge, according to the Evening Standard.

The report added that the idea of Tuchel returning to Chelsea is ‘impossible’ as the club’s chiefs ‘grew frustrated’ with how the German worked during his time at Stamford Bridge.
