Fulham manager Marco Silva is in contention to become the next Chelsea manager after Graham Potter was sacked following Saturday's Premier League defeat to Aston Villa
Marco Silva has emerged as a surprise candidate to take over at Chelsea after Graham Potter was finally sacked.
Julian Nagelsmann, sacked last week by Bayern Munich, is the club’s no.1 target while former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino is also under consideration.
But Fulham boss Silva could be yet another left-field appointment by Chelsea's co-owners Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali. The Portuguese former Fulham and Everton boss has admirers at Stamford Bridge with his promoted club sitting above the Blues in the Premier League table.
Potter was sacked on Sunday night, 24 hours after losing at home to Aston Villa, with Chelsea 11th in the table and 12 points off the top four
