Chelsea have sacked head coach Thomas Tuchel six matches into the Premier League season.
Todd Boehly has axed Tuchel just three months after completing his takeover of the club.
Chelsea lost 1-0 in their opening Champions League group game to Dinamo Zagreb on Tuesday night in what was Tuchel’s 100th game since joining the club in January 2021.
Chelsea sit sixth in the Premier League with 10 points.
A cub statement read: “On behalf of everyone at Chelsea FC, the Club would like to place on record its gratitude to Thomas and his staff for all their efforts during their time with the Club. Thomas will rightly have a place in Chelsea’s history after winning the Champions League, the Super Cup and Club World Cup in his time here.
