Graham Potter has arrived at Cobham to sign the contract as new Chelsea manager

Graham Potter arrived at the Cobham training ground to sign his contract as new Chelsea coach

 


Graham Potter has arrived at Cobham training ground a while ago to sign the contract as new Chelsea manager. According to Tom Roddy writing for The Times, Graham Potter is set to sign a five-year contract at Chelsea.


The former Brighton manager will be the head coach rather than manager. Potter travelled to Chelsea's Cobham training base this afternoon after saying goodbyes to Brighton staff this morning.

Chelsea legend John Terry made an astonishing claim about Graham Potter ahead of the big announcement that 'he's a big fan of Graham Potter.'

Potter took the Brighton job in 2019, replacing Chris Hughton who qualified them to the Premier League. At that time it looked like an unpopular call with a lot of skepticism but time has judged the former Swansea City boss well.

The 47-year-old led Ostersund from the fourth-tier of Swedish football to the top-flight in four seasons before impressing at both Swansea and Brighton. He has won thousands of admirers in the Premier League with his silky tiki-taka style of play. Brighton currently sit fourth in the Premier League.
