Chelsea have appointed Frank Lampard as temporary manager until the end of the season.
The Blues, after sacking Graham Potter last week, are on the lookout for a new permanent manager and several names have already been linked, including former Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann.
Although Nagelsmann is viewed as the front-runner to permanently succeed Potter (Fabrizio Romano), according to a recent report from Relevo, the Blues have also contacted Jose Mourinho and former Spurs manager Nuno Espirito Santo.
Luis Enrique is also believed to be a candidate for the vacant position but these latest reports will come as a bit of a surprise, especially the links to Santo, who endured a torrid time during his brief spell with rivals Spurs.
In charge of the Lilywhites for just four months between June 2021 and November 2021, the ex-Wolves manager managed just eight wins from 17 games before Daniel Levy opted to part ways with the Portuguese tactician.
Although the 49-year-old, now in charge of Saudi side Al-Ittihad, has improved his win percentage, many will argue that his credentials do not match what is required to be a success at Stamford Bridge, and with owner Todd Boehly desperate for an immediate impact, appointing Santo would largely be viewed as a huge, and potentially unnecessary, risk.
