Talking about the turn of fortunes and a mere glance at the reunion of Jose Mourinho with Chelsea provides you with a clear picture of that. From being an honored, revered title winner of May to being a disgraced, under-pressure Jose Mourinho of now, the fortunes of the Portuguese have taken a dramatic turn at Stamford Bridge this Season.
Therefore, what would have seemed unfathomable at the end of last Season is quickly becoming a possibility as Chelsea football club is reportedly linked to other managers.
Here are top 3 Candidates to replace Jose Mourinho at Stamford Bridge this Season …
Diego Simeone
If there is one man apart from Jurgen Klopp and Jose Mourinho who offers the same charisma as the duo, it undoubtedly has to be the Argentine. The way he keeps the fans glued to himself at all the times is a quality that Roman Abrahimovich would adore the most.
Playing in a League as tough as Spanish and that too at a time when both Real Madrid and Barcelona were spending money for fun, the way the Atletico Madrid boss got the better of both European Giants in order to perch his team at the top of LA Liga at the end of 2013-14 season was commendable.
Thus, if funds are made available to the Argentine – which would be a surety at Stamford Bridge, there is no reason why he wouldn’t be a brilliant appointment by the Chelsea higher ups.
Carlo Ancelotti
Though his mere mention would draw bitter memories for the Chelsea faithful, the out of job Italian is the best coach that is available in the job market for now. Having the ability to lure world class players, and with a CV that includes managing at top level clubs for 2 decades, Carlo Ancelotti would be a tailor made candidate for Chelsea.
Though his brilliant career would speak for itself, one of the major points that would get in favor of the Italian would be his relationship with John Terry. The relationship of the Englishman has deteriorated with Jose Mourinho and many describes this as the reason for the poor form of the London side.
However, with Ancelotti who has an experience of managing players of the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovich, Cristiano Ronaldo to name a few, the Italian would be welcomed with open arms by the Chelsea faithful if Jose leaves anytime sooner.
Pep Guardiola
While Chelsea has a history of stealing players from right under the nose of Manchester clubs, they can launch a killer blow if they would be able to lure the Spaniard to Stamford Bridge.
Being tipped as an ideal successor to Manuel Pellegrini at the Etihad, Chelsea would have to move swiftly as well as decisively if they want to stand any chance of getting the Spaniard.
Being one of the best manager this generation has seen, Guardiola has brought in trophies everywhere he has gone throughout his career.
And with his current contract with the Bavarian side expiring at the end of this Season, Pep Guardiola – with the lucrative salary package that Chelsea would offer, could be a huge possibility for next Season.
