Chelsea appoint Cech as technical advisor

Chelsea have welcomed former goalkeeper Petr Cech back to Stamford Bridge in the role of technical and performance advisor.

Cech will assume some of the responsibilities once held by Michael Emenalo, who resigned as Chelsea technical director in November 2017 and was not replaced.

- When does the new Premier League season start?
- Who has qualified for Europe from the Premier League?
- When does the transfer window close?

Talks to bring Cech back to Stamford Bridge began months ago but intensified after he played the final match of his professional career for Arsenal, suffering a 4-1 defeat against Chelsea in the Europa League final in Baku last month.
