Chelsea Appoints Rosenior As Head Coach On Six-year Deal

06/01/2026 08:31 PM

LONDON, Jan 6 (Bernama-PA Media/dpa) -- Chelsea have appointed Liam Rosenior as their new head coach on a deal until 2032, reported PA Media/dpa.

The 41-year-old revealed earlier on Tuesday during a farewell press conference at Ligue 1 club Strasbourg that he had “agreed verbally” to replace Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge.

The deal was quickly rubber-stamped as he returns to English football, following previous spells in charge at Derby and Hull.

Englishman Rosenior said on the club’s official website: “I am extremely humbled and honoured to be appointed head coach of Chelsea Football Club.

“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.

“To be entrusted with this role means the world to me and I want to thank all involved for the opportunity and faith in undertaking this job.

“I will give everything to bring the success this club deserves.”
