Sacked PSG coach Tuchel emerges as threat to Lampard Chelsea future
Posted Tuesday, January 05, 2021 by Tribalfootball.com
Sacked PSG coach Thomas Tuchel has emerged as a potential replacement for Frank Lampard at Chelsea.
The Sun says Lampard is under mounting pressure following an alarming dip in form — but he is in no immediate danger of being sacked.
Yet the sudden availability of Tuchel, following his axing by Paris Saint-Germain last month, has put Stamford Bridge chiefs on alert with a view to a possible change in the summer if results do not improve.
Chelsea's 3-1 humbling at home to Manchester City on Sunday was their fourth defeat in six games.
Lampard is halfway through his three-year contract and insists erratic results are a natural part of his team-building process after spending more than £220million last year on six new players.
Tuchel reached the Champions League final with PSG last season and was linked with taking over at Arsenal before Mikel Arteta got the job just over a year ago.
It is understood the German, 47, is keen for his next role to be in the Premier League.
