Reports that Mauricio Pochettino is to become new Chelsea boss
It's been reported that Chelsea are close to appointing Mauricio Pochettino as their new manager.
The Blues have agreed terms with the former Tottenham boss, according to reports in various media outlets on Saturday evening.
The 51-year-old Argentinian would take over from Frank Lampard, who is currently the interim boss. Any changes would only happen at the end of the season.
Chelsea are sacked Graham Potter in April, after a run of poor run of form for the club. He was just seven month into a new five year contract.
Lampard, who previously managed the club from 2019-21, was brought in on a temporary basis but the team's struggles have continued and they sit 11th in the Premier League.
Pochettino, who led Tottenham to the Champions League final in 2019 before being sacked later that year, is available after leaving Paris St Germain last summer.
