Thomas Tuchel has been sacked as Chelsea manager, according to the club’s press office.
“Chelsea FC would like to formally thank Thomas and his staff for all their efforts while at the club. Thomas has rightfully taken his place in Chelsea history after winning the Champions League, Super Cup, and Club World Cup.
The new owners of the club believe that now is the right time for this decision. Chelsea’s coaching staff will take over the team’s training and preparations for upcoming matches as the club prepares to appoint a new head coach soon.
There will be no further comment until a new head coach has been appointed,” reads a statement posted on the Chelsea website.
