BREAKING: Graham Potter is fired as manager of Chelsea

Graham Potter has been fired as the manager of Chelsea.

This was confirmed by the Premier League team on Sunday in a statement.

Thomas Tuchel was replaced by Potter in September by order of the Blues co-owner.

He signed a five-year deal, but after just seven months, he was fired.

Only seven of Potter’s 22 Premier League games were victories.

His departure comes after Chelsea’s 2-0 loss to Aston Villa at home, which dropped the Blues to 11th place in the Premier League standings and put them 12 points behind fourth-place Manchester United.
