Chelsea have been linked with several managers since the departure of Graham Potter, with Marcelo Gallardo emerging as a candidate.

Graham Potter was recently sacked by Chelsea after a series of poor performances. According to a report from TYC Sports, the west London club are now looking at 47-year-old Argentine manager, Marcelo Gallardo.

Marcelo Gallardo did an exceptional job with River Plate, and he is highly regarded in South American football. The 47-year-old could prove to be a quality appointment for Chelsea, and it remains to be seen whether they can convince the South American to take over at the end of the season.

Chelsea have had a very disappointing campaign so far, as they are currently in the bottom half of the Premier League table. A club of their stature is expected to challenge for major trophies and qualify for the Champions League.

The Blues are highly unlikely to finish in the Champions League positions, and they need to bring in a top-class manager who can revive their fortunes. There is no doubt that Chelsea have a top-class squad, and the new owners have spent significant sums of money on new players over the last couple of windows.

Gallardo could get the best out of the Chelsea players, and his high-intensity attacking football could be an instant hit at Stamford Bridge. The South American has been linked with other European clubs in recent months, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.

He was recently linked with a move to Premier League club Leeds United as well. Chelsea have recently appointed Frank Lampard as their manager until the end of the season on an interim basis. And it will be interesting to see if the former Chelsea midfielder can steady the ship and get Chelsea firing once again.

Lampard shares a close bond with the Chelsea players and the fanbase. His arrival is expected to lift the spirits and the morale around the club. Meanwhile, Gallardo is not the only manager linked with a move to Stamford Bridge. And the Blues are reportedly keeping tabs on Luis Enrique and Jose Mourinho as well.
