Strasbourg manager Liam Rosenior says he has verbally agreed to take over at Chelsea.
The 41-year-old Englishman is set to replace Enzo Maresca, who left on New Year’s Day.
“I cannot turn down this opportunity to join an incredible club, incredible squad who are Club World Cup champions,” Rosenior said.
Strasbourg are part of the Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital-owned BlueCo multi-club ownership group that also controls Chelsea.
“I haven’t signed yet. I have agreed verbally with Chelsea,” Rosenior said.
