Chelsea FC announced on January 6, 2025, that the club has hired Liam Rosenior from French club Racing Strasbourg as their new head coach on a contract until 2032.
Chelsea have signed Liam Rosenior from French club Racing Strasbourg as their new head coach on a contract until 2032, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.
Rosenior, who led Strasbourg to European qualification in his first season, replaces Enzo Maresca who left the club on New Year's day.

The 41-year-old, who joined Ligue 1 side Racing Strasbourg in 2024, said his time at the club had been the most rewarding period of his career after spells at Derby County and Hull City.
