    WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Daily Mail have reported that Maurizio Sarri's resignation from Lazio earlier this week will now mean that the last 10 full-time managers at Chelsea will be out of a job in the coming summer. The list starts with Andre Villas-Boas and ends with Graham Potter spanning 11 years in total.

    The list includes Villas-Boas, Roberto Di Matteo, Rafa Benitez, Jose Mourinho, Guus Hiddink, Antonio Conte, Maurizio Sarri, Frank Lampard, Thomas Tuchel and Potter.

  • THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Villas-Boas hasn't held a footballing job since 2021 and the same has been the case with Hiddink who retired from management. Meanwhile, Di Matteo is now a sporting director at South Korean side Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors. In the past month, Benitez and Mourinho have both been sacked by their respective sides mid-season due to a lack of improvement. Conte and Potter haven't held a coaching job since their sacking by the Blues, while Lampard hasn't returned to management since his three-month-long interim stint at the club following Potter's exit. Tuchel and Sarri will mutually end their times at Bayern Munich and Lazio respectively and will also be looking for new clubs.

    There are very good chances that the list could move up to 11, with current Chelsea boss, Mauricio Pochettino, enduring a dismal season at Stamford Bridge. If he does part ways with Chelsea the bizarre stat will grow yet again.
