Ruben Amorim is highly considered by the Blues hierarchy
In a season marked by inconsistent performances, Chelsea Football Club finds itself at a crossroads as speculation mounts regarding the future of current manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Despite hopes from fans for improvement under Pochettino’s leadership, Chelsea’s form has remained erratic, epitomized by their recent 5-0 defeat to Arsenal.
The club’s disappointing season has prompted discussions within the hierarchy, with Pochettino scheduled to meet for a post-season evaluation.
The inability to translate significant transfer spending into on-pitch success adds further weight to deliberations regarding his future.
Chelsea has identified two targets as potential replacement.
Reports suggest Chelsea has already identified potential replacements, with Ruben Amorim and Roberto De Zerbi emerging as frontrunner
Amorim, currently at Sporting Lisbon, garners interest from multiple clubs but could be swayed by a move to Stamford Bridge.
Meanwhile, De Zerbi, currently at Brighton, has seen his stock rise due to his success in implementing an attractive style of play and nurturing young talent.
Despite initial links to Liverpool, De Zerbi remains a viable option for Chelsea should they opt for a managerial change.
As the managerial carousel spins across Europe, Chelsea faces competition from elite clubs like Bayern Munich and Barcelona in their pursuit of managerial targets.
With Pochettino attributing struggles to the team’s youthful composition, the club weighs its options in pursuit of sustained success.
