European top manager arrived Stamford Bridge amid Mauricio Pochettino's replacement at Chelsea

Reports have claimed that one European coach was spotted at Stamford Bridge last night for the Chelsea vs Everton game.

According to the Mail Online, a Ligue 1 manager was in attendance despite neither of the managerial positions being currently available.

Mauricio Pochettino saw his side pick up a huge win at Stamford Bridge, handing out the emphatic victory they had been threatening to do for some time.

They won 6-0, with Cole Palmer finding the net four times to move himself level with Erling Haaland as the top scorer in the Premier League.

Despite the brilliant result, it would be unfair to say that pressure has completely disappeared from the Argentine’s shoulders, with European qualification absolutely on the requirement list for next season.

A number of managers have been previously linked with the role if it becomes available, however it was one figure who does not have any links to the club that was spotted in West London.

Will Still has emerged as a very promising young manager in the game, starring over in France with Stade de Reims.

He has been described as ‘fantastic’ for the work he has already done by Folarin Balogun.

Despite him being seen at Stamford Bridge, the chances of him being appointed to Everton feel more likely than those of him coming to Chelsea, if he does get the move to the Premier League he reportedly desires.

As far as potential Blues managers goes for the future, they have been linked with some names from the Premier League in particular to potentially take over, including Roberto de Zerbi and Eddie Howe.

However, Pochettino will likely be hoping last night’s emphatic result will be the start of a turnaround few months for him, with European football still a very real possibility on a number of fronts.
