The head coach Claudio Ranieri says that his comment about the club owner Roman Abramovich, made during an interview with a Spanish newspaper, was misunderstood.
According to the newspaper "Marca," Ranieri allegedly said: "Abramovich is ready to fire me. I am convinced that even if I won the Champions League, I would be removed from the position of head coach," "Abramovich doesn't understand anything about football."
However, Ranieri's agent stated that his client was misunderstood and that the comment was misinterpreted during the interview a couple of weeks ago.
The coach's agent added: "Claudio Ranieri would like to state that everything was misunderstood. He did not want to offend Roman Abramovich and everything he wants to achieve is for Chelsea."
"The interview is completely wrong, and it should not be taken seriously. What we should pay attention to now are tonight's matches," Ranieri said yesterday.
Chelsea is currently trying to reach the Champions League final, but it will be very difficult for them to overcome " ", who won the first match with a score of 3-1. Winning the prestigious European league would be a good chance for Ranieri to continue in his position, but after the mistakes made in yesterday's match, it seems unlikely.
