CaughtOffside revealed that Chelsea's management has included Crystal Palace's coach, Oliver Glasner, among its interests amid growing doubts about Enzo Marisca's long-term future at Stamford Bridge.

According to the same source, Chelsea's management is closely monitoring alternative coaching options, with increasing concern due to the lack of identity and technical stability under Marisca's leadership. The club plans to review its position in February, with the possibility of making an early decision if the decline in results continues.

The report pointed out that Chelsea's results have shown clear fluctuations in recent weeks, with four matches without a win in all competitions, including a significant loss to Atalanta in the Champions League, which heightened the club's concerns.

The site explained that Marisca's possession-based philosophy has not yet translated into consistent performance, with difficulties for the coaching staff and players in understanding his tactical instructions, alongside administrative concerns related to how some key players, such as Cole Palmer, are utilized.

In this context, the same source reported that Chelsea made informal contact with Oliver Glasner, who has delivered strong performances with Crystal Palace, leading them to the upper half of the Premier League table, in addition to winning both the FA Cup and the Community Shield this year.

The report added that Chelsea sees Glasner as a suitable option due to his tactical flexibility and ability to maximize available resources if the club decides to end the Marisca era.

The report also noted that Andoni Iraola, the current Bournemouth coach, has joined the list of candidates, praised for his high-pressing attacking style that aligns with the nature of Chelsea's young squad.
