|Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has confirmed rumours that talks are ongoing over a new contract for him but admitted that right now the priority is to improve the team before the window closes. The German joined Chelsea in January 2021 and has already won the Champions League with the Blues.
Despite Frank Lampard’s impressive debut season with Chelsea, the Englishman struggled in his second term and it saw the Chelsea legend eventually sacked. However, his replacement arrived in the form of Thomas Tuchel and the German has since turned the Blues into a contender for some of Europe’s biggest trophies. Not only that, Tuchel led Chelsea to Champions League and Club World Cup trophies in his first year although his first full season didn’t go according to plan.
