Cesc Fabregas has disagreed with Chelsea’s decision to sack Graham Potter but is hopeful that his permanent replacement, Mauricio Pochettino, can turn the club’s fortunes around. Todd Boehly made two changes in the Stamford Bridge dugout during the 2022/23 campaign with Thomas Tuchel and Potter being sacked within a season.
Frank Lampard returned to the club as caretaker boss for the final 11 fixtures of the campaign but only picked up one win in that time. Mauricio Pochettino is set to officially become manager on July 1 but his work has already begun ahead of the summer transfer window.
football.london understands the Argentine wants to sign a new goalkeeper, central midfielder and striker ahead of next season - with further additions depending on which players are sold this summer. Mason Mount, Mateo Kovacic and N'Golo Kante are all facing uncertain futures, along with the likes of Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Trevoh Chalobah, Hakim Ziyech, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Christian Pulisic and Edouard Mendy.
