Former Chelsea coach Thomas Tuchel broke his long silence after his dismissal from the “Blues” coach, and expressed his deep affection and pain at the sudden dismissal, and wrote a farewell letter in which he said, “He hoped to stay for many years at Stamford Bridge, the stronghold of Chelsea.”
Tuchel, 49, was sacked last Wednesday morning after a goal against Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League group stage. Tuchel pleaded with the club’s new owners during a short meeting that took only 10 minutes to keep him and give him a second chance, but club president and board of directors, Todd Boehle, had already made the decision to fire him. And Tuchel received 15 million pounds in compensation for his dismissal before the expiration of his contract, and after he succeeded one year ago in obtaining the Champions League with the team.
In his letter, Tuchel said: This is the most difficult letter I write because I am very attached to Chelsea and I wish to spend many more years with him. Because they all made me feel very welcome here.

The former coach of Paris Saint-Germain did not forget the wonderful moments he lived at Stamford Bridge, and commented: I felt proud and overjoyed that I succeeded in helping the team win the “Champions League and the Club World Cup”, and these two championships will remain engraved in my memory as long as I live, and I am very honored that I was Part of the history of this club, and whatever future awaits me, I will never forget the memories of the 18 months I spent here, because it holds a special place in my heart.
Tuchel received many positive responses to his farewell message from the fans who love the Blues, and these responses revealed the extent of the love and appreciation that these fans have for this German coach.
It is noteworthy that the English Graham Potter, who took over the technical leadership of the team, succeeding Tuchel a few hours after the latter’s dismissal, was Brighton’s technical director and achieved good results with him. Potter has a five-year contract and a £10m annual salary and is seen by all at Stamford Bridge as the man of the new era led by Todd Boeley, thanks to his coaching skills, successful tactics and good leadership for players.
