Jose Mourinho was sacked as Chelsea manager on Thursday
afternoon after a dreadful run of results which has left his side
stranded in 16th place in the Premier League table. Chelsea will now look
to Guus Hiddink, as reported by Telegraph Sport on Wednesday, to replace
the manager on a short-term basis.
The next permanent Chelsea manager will likely be appointed next summer, with candidates including Diego Simeone, Pep Guardiola and Carlo Ancelotti all in the frame. Mourinho's second reign in London was initially successful, with his Chelsea side winning the league last year, and the Portuguese further enhancing his reputation as Chelsea's best ever manager.

Mourinho's second reign in London was initially successful, with his Chelsea side winning the league last year, and the Portuguese further enhancing his reputation as Chelsea's best ever manager.
But this season has been coloured by controversy, including
the dismissal of club doctor Eva Carneiro, severe down-turns in form from
key players including Cesc Fabregas and Branislav Ivanovic, and a series of
surprising defeats to teams including Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and
Southampton. The final straw was a 2-1 defeat to league-leading Leicester City
on Monday night, in which Eden Hazard was accused of exaggerating a hip
injury. Mourinho's future remains unclear, but one bookmaker makes a
return to Real Madrid favourite for his next move, ahead of replacing Louis van
Gaal at Manchester United.
