MANAGER: ROSENIOR TAKES REINS AT STAMFORD BRIDGE

Chelsea confirmed yesterday the little-known Liam Rosenior will be their new head coach on a six-and-a-half-year deal, replacing Enzo Maresca.

The 41-year-old Englishman told a press conference earlier in the day at Ligue 1 club Strasbourg he had "verbally agreed" on the move to Stamford Bridge.

The Premier League club announced Rosenior had signed a deal until 2032.

"I am extremely humbled and honoured to be appointed head coach of Chelsea Football Club," he said in a statement on Chelsea's website.

"This is a club with a unique spirit and a proud history of winning trophies.

"My job is to protect that identity and create a team that reflects these values in every game we play as we continue winning trophies."
