Chelsea's new boss Thomas Tuchel takes late training session as Blues prepare for Wolves

Thomas Tuchel has been announced as the new Chelsea manager after the London based club parted ways with club legend and former head coach Frank Lampard earlier this week. After the announcement, Thomas Tuchel was back to work as he wasted no time in getting back on the training ground at Cobham and took charge of his first training session as Chelsea's head coach.

The former Borussia Dortmund and PSG manager received an 18-month contract along with an option that will allow the club to extend the deal for one more year. Tuchel arrived a little late to Cobham last evening as the first team players were asked to report for training at 6 PM to make sure Tuchel got the opportunity to meet them.

Tuchel who was announced just hours ago will now be available and allowed to sit in the dugout for the first time as Chelsea take on Premier League rivals Wolves at Stamford Bridge. Despite arriving in London late, the 47-year-old will be exempted from going into quarantine as a result of his elite sports exemption.
