Following Graham Potter's dismissal on Sunday, Chelsea's interim head coach Bruno Saltor has expressed that it has been a challenging 24 hours for everyone involved.
Potter and his assistant coach Billy Reid have departed the club after only 31 games, with Bruno taking over team affairs.
As part of Potter's coaching staff at Brighton, Bruno and Reid joined Chelsea with him last September.
In light of the recent changes, Bruno, a 42-year-old Spanish coach, stated that the experience has been emotionally difficult for everyone involved, and it has been challenging to deal with press conferences and players.
Furthermore, Bruno emphasized the impact of the changes on the staff and their families and expressed his sadness for losing two top coaches and human beings.
Despite the difficulties, Bruno is maintaining a professional approach, focusing on guiding the players and going day by day.
When Chelsea announced the changes, they stated that Potter has "agreed to collaborate with the club to facilitate a smooth transition."
Bruno, a former Brighton defender, explained that this probably means he is there to keep the process going, and they are collaborating as best they can.
Bruno praised Graham Potter for his outstanding work and acknowledged that football is a complex business that requires everyone to keep moving forward.
