LONDON (AFP) - Chelsea have put Avram Grant in charge of their first team following the shock departure of Jose Mourinho, the club announced on Thursday.

"Chelsea can confirm that Avram Grant and Steve Clarke will be in charge of the first team from today," a statement posted on the club's website stated.

It was not immediately clear if former Israel coach Grant and Clarke, who had been Mourinho's assistant, would be in charge for the long-term or only on a caretaker basis.
