Chelsea claim Tuchel rumours are false

Chelsea have not made an approach for former Borussia Dortmund head coach, Thomas Tuchel, after reports Antonio Conte could be sacked by the club, according to Goal.

Conte has become increasingly frustrated with transfer business at the club and Tuchel was linked as a replacement for the Italian in German reports but they have since been played down.

Tensions are known to be running high at Chelsea with Conte frustrated about the lack of transfers over the summer months.

Despite growing aggravation from Conte, the club appears to be making progress with a number of potential deals, with the Blues interested in Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Antonio Candreva, Danny Rose and Leicester’s Danny Drinkwater, who won the league with N’Golo Kante at the King Power.

Chelsea are looking to bolster their squad for the current season, as they embark on their return to the Champions League, as well as trying to defend their Premier League title.
