But Alonso actually will be the boss, rather than a head coach, which is how his predecessors were named at the club. This will mean that his role will have significantly more control than the role of those that came before him, and that is only a good thing.
Alonso will get a say on new transfer targets they bring in, and he will also get a say on the players that they will be looking to sell.
Could two of those players be Wesley Fofana and Liam Delap? Journalist Alex Crook of talkSPORT believes so!
Crook on Fofana and Delap
Speaking over the weekend in quotes picked up on X, Crook said:
“I am not convinced Wesley Fofana has a long term future at Chelsea.
“I am expecting Liam Delap to leave Chelsea this summer, with a more established striker coming in.”
I think both will be sold, personally.
