English manager, Liam Rosenior is set to be the next Chelsea head coach.
The outgoing Strasbourg manager will meet the Chelsea sporting leadership team today, with a view to replacing Enzo Maresca, who left Stamford Bridge on January 1.
Strasbourg, the French side who are Chelsea’s sister club, are working on securing their own suitable replacement Rosenior. Former Wolves boss Gary O’Neill is one of three candidates being considered to succeed him.
Chelsea were temporarily managed by their Under-21 head coach, Calum McFarlane, against City.
Calum McFarlane took charge of Chelsea for their visit to the Etihad Stadium and guided them to a 1-1 draw against Man City thanks to a late equaliser from Enzo Fernandez.
Speaking after the game, McFarlane said: “When I originally took over I was told I would take the Man City game, and there’s a chance the new manager might be in on Monday, that’s what I was told originally.
“It’s Sunday now, we’ve been solely focused on the game. For all I know, the new manager will be in shortly and I will lead the team until he’s in.”
Rosenior played for Bristol City, Fulham, Reading, Hull City and Brighton during a 16-year playing career.
After hanging up his boots in 2018, Rosenior almost guided Hull to the Championship play-offs in 2024 and then became head coach of Strasbourg, who are owned by Chelsea’s parent company BlueCo. The French club finished seventh in Ligue 1 last season.
