Chelsea and Julian Nagelsmann discuss the vacant managerial position

According to reports, Chelsea and former Bayern Munich manager Julian Nagelsmann have held their first round of negotiations as the Blues seek to find a permanent manager. Following the firing of Graham Potter, Chelsea reportedly initiated informal discussions with Julian Nagelsmann's representatives as the Blues narrowed down their list of potential replacements two weeks ago. The list is now thought to have shrunk to a far smaller number, and Nagelsmann, the former manager of Bayern Munich, is near the top of the list.
