Africa-Press – Zimbabwe. <\/strong><\/span>Chelsea Football Club has fired head coach Thomas Tuchel following a series of poor results.<\/p>\n

In a statement seen by Pindula News, the English Premier League (EPL) giants said this Wednesday:<\/p>\n

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\u2019s history after winning the Champions League, the Super Cup and Club World Cup in his time here.<\/p>\n

As the new ownership group reaches 100 days since taking over the Club, and as it continues its hard work to take the club forward, the new owners believe it is the right time to make this transition.<\/p>\n

Chelsea\u2019s coaching staff will take charge of the team for training and the preparation of our upcoming matches as the Club moves swiftly to appoint a new head coach.<\/p>\n

There will be no further comment until a new head coach appointment is made.<\/p>\n

The dismissal comes barely hours after the London-based club had suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Dinamo Zagreb in their opening match of the 2022\/23 UEFA Champions League on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Tuchel was appointed by Chelsea in January 2021 and had an immediate impact, winning the Champions League in his first season at the club.<\/p>\n

In 2021-22, Chelsea reached both the FA Cup and Carabao Cup final as they secured a third-place finish in the Premier League.<\/p>\n

He joined Chelsea from Paris Saint Germain (PSG) who had fired him.<\/p>\n
