Graham Potter Could Make an Instant Bounce Back to Football Management

• Graham Potter became the 13th managerial casualty of the 2022/23 Premier League season
• A meeting with Todd Boehly after the Aston Villa game proved to be his final act at Chelsea
• Interesting reports now claim Potter could make an instant return to the Premier League

Graham Potter may have lost his job at Chelsea but the Englishman is still highly-rated, at least by other Premier League clubs.

The 47-year old still has a number of suitors, one of them being Leicester City, according to stunning new reports.

In an interesting twist of fate, Leicester are also looking for a new manager after the club parted ways with Brendan Rodgers after four years in charge.

Rodgers left the Foxes with the club in 19th place, while Potter was dismissed by Chelsea after the club slipped to the bottom half of the log.

For Leicester, their next managerial appointment will be crucial, especially because they are fighting relegation.

According to TalkSport, the Foxes have been huge admirers of Potter and the Englishman has been on the club’s radar from his Brighton & Hove Albion days.

Potter’s ratings shot up in 2019 when he took charge of the Seagulls, with his attractive style of football earning admirers around the league.

He was offered his first real test of a job when Chelsea sacked Thomas Tuchel in September 2022, but his stint was anything but straightforward.

In his 22 Premier League games in charge, Potter won just seven times, with Chelsea slipping from sixth to 11th during his reign.

At the moment, the Blues' hopes for Champions League football solely hinges on them winning the competition but that in itself is an uphill task, as they face Real Madrid in the quarter-finals.
