Chelsea FC have parted ways with head coach Liam Rosenior after a disastrous run of form that saw the club slump to one of its worst sequences in recent history.
The decision follows a humiliating 3-0 defeat to Brighton, which marked the club’s fifth consecutive Premier League loss without scoring — a streak not seen in over a century.
Rosenior, who was only appointed in January on a long-term deal, leaves just months into his tenure, highlighting the growing instability at Stamford Bridge.
Sources indicate the manager had already said his goodbyes to players and staff prior to the official confirmation, with pressure mounting from both supporters and within the club hierarchy.
Chelsea’s struggles this season have not only dented their domestic ambitions but also severely impacted their hopes of securing Champions League football, with the team slipping down the table amid internal tension and poor performances.
In the aftermath of the sacking, interim boss Calum McFarlane is expected to take charge as the club prepares for a crucial FA Cup semi-final, while the board begins the search for a long-term replacement.
Despite the short tenure, Rosenior’s exit adds to a growing list of managerial changes at Chelsea in recent years, raising further questions about the club’s direction and long-term strategy.
