Mauricio Pochettino is known for being very particular with his methods, on and off the pitch, so he could very well come in and rewrite Chelsea's transfer strategy. The Blues have been heavily linked with numerous big names ahead of the summer window, with a striker, holding midfielder and a goalkeeper expected to top Todd Boehly's shortlist.
In fact, the west Londoners seem to have already gift-wrapped the first signing of the Pochettino era – if of course he pens a deal at Stamford Bridge. As reported by football.london reported in October, Chelsea appear to have won the race to sign Christopher Nkunku.
It's understood that the RB Leipzig star has signed a pre-contract agreement with the Blues and will move to west London in time for the 2023/24 season. However, the deal is not completely wrapped up yet and there are some final details that need to be arranged before the transfer is official.
