Graham Potter has finally paid the price for his struggles at Chelsea, with the Blues ruthlessly sacking the Englishman on Sunday evening.
The Blues dropped into the bottom half of the Premier League table as they were beaten 2-0 at home to Aston Villa on Saturday night. That was one defeat too many for owner Todd Boehly to handle, with the American sacking Potter and appointing Bruno Saltor as interim manager.
Critics have been quick to question some of Potter's tactics, but he will not get the chance to answer them, with Boehly's patience finally running out. Julian Nagelsmann has also been linked with the job after his Bayern Munich exit.
Here's a look at all the latest headlines from Stamford Bridge.
Graham Potter has been sacked by Chelsea, after seeing the Blues drop into the bottom half of the Premier League table.
Potter was appointed at Stamford Bridge after sacking Champions League winning boss Thomas Tuchel in September. He left Premier League rivals Brighton and Hove Albion to take the job but managed just 12 wins from over 30 games in charge.
Nagelsmann is one of Europe's most promising managers, despite being sacked by Bayern Munich last month. The former RB Leipzig boss is currently a free agent following his Bavarian exit but does not want to take the Chelsea job at the moment in time.
As reported by Sky in Germany, Nagelsmann is admired by Chelsea's hierarchy - who are now searching for Potter's replacement. Yet Nagelsmann does not want to make an immediate return to management and will wait until the summer to decide his future.
