Chelsea legend Claude Makelele has left his role as the club's technical mentor

Premier League

Leicester

The former Blues star made 217 appearances for the club during his time as a player and returned in 2019 in an overseeing role. Makelele was working with individual academy players and those who were out on loan.

WHAT HAPPENED?

<a href="https://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/claude-makelele-has-left-chelsea-by-mutual-decision" target="_blank">Reports</a> suggest that Makelele has reached a mutual agreement with the Stamford Bridge club to depart as a technical mentor. He played in a Chelsea Legends game earlier this month, but the 50-year-old had left the club prior to the fixture.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Makelele has worked in several dugouts since his retirement in 2011. He has managed Bastia and Eupen, and been an assistant manager at both Paris Saint-Germain and Swansea City; Makelele has also been a technical director at AS Monaco.
