Frank Leboeuf has suggested that Chelsea’s current manager, Graham Potter, should be replaced by former Real Madrid head coach Zinedine Zidane. The former Chelsea legend believes this would be a positive move for a club now under the ownership of Todd Boehly.
Speaking to ESPN, Leboeuf said, “I don’t know, but it would be a very good idea; I would be very pleased. I never asked him if he wanted to come to England. I asked him if he didn’t speak English, but he responded in English, so you know he speaks a little bit. Yeah, he could be in charge of Chelsea, and I would be very, very happy about it.”
Zidane, who has not managed since 2021, recently expressed a desire to return to management this year. The suggestion comes after Chelsea’s recent 2‑0 loss to Southampton, their latest Premier League defeat, and a run in which they have won only two of their last 15 games.
