Speculation over a possible return to Stamford Bridge for Brendan Rodgers took another twist this morning after the former Liverpool manager was spotted in Cobham.
The ex-Anfield chief was photographed in London on the tube and at Waterloo station on Monday.
Today he was with partner Charlotte Hind during an open morning at an independent school close to Chelsea's training ground, suggesting a permanent move to the area.
Welcome to Cobham Brendan. Here's our quick guide to the town
The 42-year-old, who was on the Blues’ coaching staff during boss Jose Mourinho's first spell at the club, was sacked by the Reds earlier in the season.
So my dad works at a rich school in Cobham and just told me he's seen Brendan Rodgers having a look round. PLEASE NO 💔😱

He has been linked with recent managerial vacancies at QPR and Fulham, which would both be easily accessible by car after the school run.
Is this the future?
Mourinho is under increasing pressure with his team 16th in the Premier League table after Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Stoke City and Rodgers has been tipped as a potential caretaker manager should he be given the boot.
Chelsea assistant first team coach Rui Faria was also among the interested parents taking a look around the plush £5,000-a-term school.
