Liam Rosenior, the newly-appointed manager of Chelsea Football Club, has been convicted of speeding. The 41-year-old was fined a total of £1,052 after admitting to driving at 36mph in a 30mph zone in Littleover, Derbyshire, on July 7.
Rosenior's Audi A8 Quattro was caught by a speed camera. He was convicted on January 2 after failing to attend a speed awareness course. In a note to Derby Magistrates' Court, Rosenior explained that he was stuck in France due to fog after a match and could not return in time for the course.
The former Hull City and Strasbourg manager was confirmed as Chelsea's new boss on Tuesday, signing a contract until 2032. He replaces interim manager Calum McFarlane and succeeds Enzo Maresca.
“I am extremely humbled and honoured to be appointed head coach of Chelsea Football Club,” Rosenior said. “This is a club with a unique spirit and a proud history of winning trophies.”
