Chelsea sack Ancelotti

Posted on | May 23, 2011 | No Comments

Chelsea announced that they are looking for a new manager after Carlo Ancelotti has been sacked from that position.

Ancelotti was appointed as Chelsea manager in July 2009 and had one more year of his contract at Stamford Bridge. The Italian manager will receive around €7.5 millions as compensation.

Ancelotti won the title in Premier League last year and finished second this season, just behind rivals from Manchester.

Chelsea will search now for a new manager but there are sources from the interior that they will take their time in appointing a new manager.

Hiddink, Redknapp, Marco Van Basten or Andre Villas-Boas are only a few names on the shortlist but there are also other possible targets.

Ancelotti could join Roma where Totti would welcome him.
