Pedro backs Chelsea appointing Fulham boss Jokanovic

There is a new name being touted as the next Chelsea manager - Slavisa Jokanovic.

While names such as Maurizio Sarri are the most commonly mentioned alongside the Chelsea job, Jokanovic is a new link in the media.

And there is one Chelsea player who is seemingly a fan of the move. Pedro spoke to a Spanish outlet about the possibility of Jokanovic being his next club manager.

"We know there might be some changes," he told Spanish radio Cadena Ser.

"We know he [Jokanovic] is a great manager."

Pedro also said he was happy to stay at Chelsea next season.

"I'm very comfortable with my team-mates and, in football terms I'm very happy for having won the Premier League and the FA Cup in three years. I'm happy because it's always difficult to win trophies in England," he added.

"I'm enjoying my holidays right now, getting some rest and spending time with family, and then start the new season in the best way."
