Former Bayern Munich coach Julian Nagelsmann says he's OUT of the Chelsea managerial running.
Nagelsmann has met with Chelsea directors since his dismissal by Bayern earlier this month.
However, he has now declared he won't be considering the Blues job.
Asked why talks collapsed with the Blues, he told Sky Deutschland: "To cancel something, you have to commit to something."
It's suggested Nagelsmann felt the timing wasn't for him as he seeks a break from the game, despite Chelsea willing to wait until the summer before making their permanent appointment.
