Chelsea want to appoint a new manager as quickly as possible, and every outlet out there wants the scoop on what the Blues will do next.
Yesterday there were reports that the club had already spoken to Andoni Iraola in person, seeming to cement the Bournemouth coachâs status as favourite to get the job.
Today, however, an update from the Evening Standardâs Dom Smith says that the Blues have also now spoken to Xabi Alonso, the man who is gradually closing in on Iraola as favourite with the bookies.
Chelsea shortlist narrowed down to âbetween 5 and 6â candidates
