This market will resolve according to the person who is appointed as the next permanent manager of Chelsea F.C.. If no permanent manager is appointed by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, the market will resolve to "Other." Appointments of 'interim,' 'caretaker,' or other non-permanent managers will not impact this market's resolution. An announcement of a new permanent manager's appointment before this market's close date will immediately resolve this market to the corresponding option, regardless of when the announced appointment goes into effect. The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Chelsea F.C.; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Chelsea sacked Liam Rosenior on April 23 after five straight Premier League defeats, leaving interim coach Calum McFarlane in charge amid slipping Champions League qualification hopes and fueling a high-stakes hunt for the next permanent head coach. Trader consensus pins Xabi Alonso at 71.5% implied probability, propelled by reports over the past week of encouraging initial talks, his frontrunner status, and standout credentials from guiding Bayer Leverkusen to an unbeaten Bundesliga title—making him open to a Premier League return despite Liverpool links. Andoni Iraola (14.5%) draws support from Bournemouth's upward trajectory under his possession-based style, while Oliver Glasner (8.8%) appeals via Crystal Palace's defensive solidity, highlighting a crowded field of tactical innovators.
