South American manager latest to put himself forward for Chelsea job

Chelsea have a vacant position as manager at the club right now after sacking Graham Potter at the weekend.

It’s a position that will never be short of applications to take the role, with Chelsea being such a huge club and a project that many would love to take on regardless of the media toxicity right now.

We are seeing all the names linked with Chelsea, names that the club are apparently keen on and speaking to already. But there are other names starting to come up as well, names of managers who are putting themselves forward for the role whether Chelsea are interested or not!

And according to The Independent, Marcelo Gallardo has put himself forward for the Chelsea job on a day that has seen them talk to main candidates such as Julian Nagelsmann, Luis Enrique and Mauricio Pochettino.

They claim that while the Argentine has long been seen as one of the brightest young coaches in the world due to twice winning the Copa Libertadores at a revitalised River Plate, and is seen as an interesting option by a number of clubs including Chelsea, the Stamford Bridge hierarchy would prefer someone with top-level European experience.
