POST-BREXIT visa laws means ex-Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel will be kicked OUT of the UK because he is out of employment.
The German, 49, was sacked by Chelsea in September despite spending just shy of £250million on new players.

Being placed on gardening leave means they are technically still contracted to Chelsea.
However, Tuchel was not made a similar offer to Zslot Low and Benjamin Webber, and due to post-Brexit visa laws, the Champions League-winning manager will be kicked OUT of the UK next month.
Tuchel was happy in Surrey, where his daughters have attended school, the report says.
