Graham Potter, who was dismissed by Chelsea in April, is on the verge of securing a new position. Todd Boehly, the American owner, made the decision to let Potter go despite initial promise. There’s a sense that Boehly acted hastily, drawing comparisons to Thomas Tuchel’s situation. Mauricio Pochettino’s fate remains uncertain, but lessons may have been learned from past decisions.
During his six-month break from football, Potter likely reflected on his future goals. Recent reports suggest a surprising opportunity with Napoli, aiming to replace their discontented manager Rudi Garcia in pursuit of Serie A glory. Pedro Gallardo and Igor Tudor are also under consideration. Landing this role would be significant for Potter, a former Chelsea player.
