Former Chelsea player, Joe Cole has named Real Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti as an ideal man to head the affairs of Chelsea from the dug-out.
Graham Potter was recently fired as Chelsea’s manager. And he was replaced with Frank Lampard, who returned to Stamford Bridge as interim manager for the remainder of the season.
Chelsea has lost all four games since Lampard took over. So it’s been a disaster for him thus far. And Cole is now anticipating a probable permanent appointment.
The former England international wants Ancelotti, who is performing well in his second stint as Real Madrid’s manager to return to the club. The Italian tactician famously won the Premier League and FA Cup double in his first season in west London back in 2009–10.
It is unknown whether the challenge of rebuilding with this Chelsea side will interest the 63-year-old. But it appears Cole is adamant that he may be just what the team needs right now.
“I love Carlo,” Cole told BT Sport, as quoted by the Daily Express. “He was actually one who I thought could possibly be on the list to come back here, you know? If you ever want a manager to soothe a club and to just rebuild it, he might fancy the challenge.

“Real Madrid could quite be just as insane to let him go if he doesn’t win the Champions League and he doesn’t put another pot on the table. I don’t know why you [Ferdinand] are looking at me like that – it’s Real Madrid, right? I’m clutching – Carlo, please come home.”
