Reports: Chelsea set to sack Lampard and name Saint-Germain outcast

According to the English press, Chelsea have decided to fire their coach Frank Lampard from team training due to the deterioration of results in the recent period in the English Premier League.

UK newspaper “Telegraph” reported that the Chelsea administration led by Roman Abrahamovich had made the decision to dispense with Lampard’s services mid-season.

The report adds that the players have been told not to make it to the team’s training headquarters in London until the afternoon until the final decision on technical staff is made.

Reports say Chelsea have suffered 5 losses in their last 8 games and rank ninth with 29 points in the domestic league, 11 points behind leaders Manchester United.
She explained that Ibrahimovic would not accept that the team did not qualify for the Champions League, having spent over £ 200million last summer.

The German version “Sky” has confirmed the appointment of the German Thomas Tuchel to replace Lampard at the management of Chelsea, to come a few weeks after his dismissal at Paris Saint-Germain.

Media have confirmed Tochel has been nominated and is earning a salary of around 4.5 million euros per season.

There has been no official comment from the English club at this point regarding reports of the coach’s dismissal or the appointment of a new training device for the remainder of the season.

In the most prominent early reactions, former Tottenham and Barcelona striker Gary Lineker, who works as a commentator for Britain’s BBC, criticized Chelsea’s possible move, saying: “It’s ridiculous (Lampard’s dismissal ) after its first negative series. “

He added: “It is only natural that the coach needs more time, especially with the new signings made by the club during the summer. Patience is a rare characteristic in the sport. They will not learn.”
