JAKARTA - The manager's hunt continues to be carried out by Chelsea. The Blues are in the process of "in-depth" of finding Graham Potter's long-term successor at Stamford Bridge.

Previously, Todd Boehly had also spoken with former Spanish boss Luis Enrique. Meanwhile, Julien Nagelsmann and Marco Silva are also being considered.

Frank Lampard, interim manager until the end of the season, also tried to impress and did not rule out the possibility of getting a full-time job for the second time.

Now a new candidate appears. Chelsea management has reportedly interviewed Sporting Lisbon coach Ruben Amorim to occupy the position of team manager.

The Portuguese man successfully led Sporting to their first title in 19 years when they finished at the top of the 2021 season.

He has also won three Portuguese League Cups, two with Sporting and one with his former club, SC Braga.

This season Sporting is not very impressive by sitting in fourth place in the Portugal standings. They are 14 points behind the leaders of the standings, Benfica

But Sporting recently eliminated Premier League leader Arsenal from the Europa League.

Sporting held the Gunners to a 2-2 draw in Lisbon before coming back from missing to a 1-1 draw at the Emirates, where they won on penalties.

Chelsea's hunt for new permanent managers follows Potter's sacking in early April.

The former Brighton and Hove Albion boss only lasted seven months from his five-year contract. He has won only seven of England's 22 Premier League games as manager of the Blues.
