Roberto Di Matteo |
“The team’s recent performances and results have not been
good enough and the owner and the Board felt that a change was necessary now to
keep the club moving in the right direction as we head into a vitally important
part of the season. Our aim is to remain as competitive as possible and
challenge strongly on all fronts. The owner and the Board would like to thank
Roberto for all he has done for the club since taking over in March. Roberto
helped guide us to an historic Champions’ league victory and a seventh FA cup.
We will never forget the huge contribution he has made to the club’s history
and he will always be welcomed at Stamford Bridge”, read the statement.
The Italian who did win 24 of his 42 games in charge of the
club has had a bad run. The latest being the 3-0 loss to Juventus leaving the
club in danger of not qualifying for the knockout stage of the Champions’
league. If they do not qualify, they would be the first immediate champion not
to go past the group stage of the next one.
The Club will be making an announcement shortly regarding a
first team manager.
