The 2023–24 Premier League season has ended, and the teams are already looking to make changes early in the off-season. Chelsea are set to part ways with Mauricio Pochettino, and Roberto De Zerbi is the favorite to replace the Argentine coach at Stamford Bridge.
The famous journalist Fabrizio Romano announced that Chelsea and Pochettino would part ways. That came after another disappointing and trophyless season for Chelsea. The Blues won five straight games to end the EPL in 6th place and qualify for the UEFA Conference League. They lost the EFL Cup final to Liverpool and lost to Man City in the FA Cup semi-finals. Overall, it wasn’t the worst season for Chelsea, but with the number of signings they had this year, they should have been better.
Here are the updated odds for which coach will replace Pochettino as the next Chelsea manager:
The best betting odds for Chelsea have Roberto De Zerbi as the clear favorite to get the job. There are a lot of rumors that the Italian manager will leave Brighton soon, so he might make the move to Stamford Bridge. Sebastian Hoeness has done wonders with VfB Stuttgart this season. They have finished second in the Bundesliga, despite being in the relegation zone last year. Hoeness signed a new contract with the club in March.
A lot of clubs have their eyes on Kieran McKenna, the coach of Ipswich Town, especially Brighton and Chelsea. Thomas Tuchel parted ways with Bayern Munich after the end of the season, so he can have a return to the Blues once again, and he has won the Champions League with them in his debut season.
