Mauricio Pochettino has held talks with Chelsea over the managerial job at Stamford Bridge.
Former Tottenham boss Pochettino has been sounded out by the Chelsea hierarchy as they look to make a permanent appointment. Former Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann is still regarded as the early favourite and has also held talks with Chelsea.
But Chelsea have got Pochettino high on their list of candidates and are set to follow up the initial contact with more formal talks. Chelsea owner Todd Boehly, together with Behdad Eghbali, are determined to get the right man to succeed Graham Potter who was sacked last month.
