Rosenior, who took over at Strasbourg in 2024 after spells as head coach at Hull City and Derby County has now been unveiled as Chelsea’s new head coach a week after the sacking of Enzo Maresca.
What can Rosenior bring?
Strasbourg are part of the Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital-owned BlueCo multi-club ownership group that also controls Chelsea and his move to the Blues was a simple transition.
Speaking to the club website, Rosenior opened up on joining the West London side and how excited he is to get started.
“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.
“I believe deeply in teamwork, unity, togetherness and working for one another, and those values will be at the heart of everything we do. They will be the foundation of our success.
“I am excited to work with this extremely talented group of players and staff, to build strong connections on and off the pitch, and to create an environment where everyone feels united and driven by the same goal.”
Rosenior is here to win
Chelsea are fifth in the Premier League and clash with Fulham at Craven Cottage on Wednesday night. Rosenior spoke more on his objectives with the side who are keen to bounce back from their lull in form.
“There is a real hunger to win, and I will give everything, every single day, to help this team compete and win at the very highest level to make everyone connected and proud to be a part of Chelsea Football Club.
“I want our fans to be proud of who we are and what we represent in every single game that we play. They are the soul of this enormous, historic and huge football club.
“I cannot wait to meet you all. I cannot wait to get started.”
