Chelsea FC Sacks Liam Rosenior After Five Loss Streak

Chelsea FC announced the dismissal of head coach Liam Rosenior after a disappointing five-game losing streak in the Premier League, during which the team failed to score. This streak is the worst the club has experienced since 1912.

Rosenior took over as head coach in January following the sudden departure of Enzo Maresca, who had been in charge for 106 days, as part of Chelsea's multi-club model strategy linked to their sister club, Strasbourg. Despite his professionalism, the results under Rosenior fell below the necessary standards, culminating in a 3-0 defeat to Brighton, which was deemed the final straw.

Chelsea now finds itself seven points behind fifth-place Liverpool, jeopardizing their chances of European football next season. Calum McFarlane, the academy coach, has been appointed interim manager for the second time this season, tasked with leading the team in the FA Cup semi-final against Leeds United at Wembley.

Chelsea has also disclosed plans to begin the search for a long-term football manager.
