Chelsea have parted ways with manager Mauricio Pochettino, and they are now looking at potential replacements, including Vincent Kompany.
According to HITC, Chelsea are considering a move for Burnley manager Vincent Kompany. The 38-year-old has been relegated from the Premier League with the Clarets this season, and it will be interesting to see if Chelsea decide to move for him in the coming weeks.
Kompany was highly rated during his time in the EFL Championship with Burnley last season. But he failed to prove his quality in the English top flight. His appointment could prove to be an underwhelming one and a gamble for Chelsea. The West Londoners are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they should be challenging for trophies every season.
Instead, Chelsea have missed out on European qualification in the last two seasons, and they need to bring in someone who can transform them. Appointing a proven manager would be the right move from the club. It will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
Can Vincent Kompany handle the pressure at Chelsea?
There is no doubt that Kompany is a talented young manager with a bright future, and it will be interesting to see if he can handle the pressure at Chelsea. The former Manchester City captain has been a target for several top clubs, including Tottenham. He will be expected to win trophies instantly.
Although Chelsea have a talented squad, they have not been able to perform as a team, and it remains to be seen whether Kompany can get the best out of them. The former Manchester City defender will certainly be tempted to join one of the biggest clubs in the world, and it would be a major opportunity for him in his short managerial career.
Kompany will have a better team at Chelsea and considerable resources at his disposal. They could help him realise his ambitions in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see if the Blues can convince him to join the club in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen how the Chelsea fans react to the appointment if it is finalised in the coming weeks. They will probably hope for a proven manager who has won major trophies throughout his career.
