Daniel Levy sent desperate Mauricio Pochettino plea in call for U-turn on Chelsea job

Tottenham legend Ricky Villa has urged the club’s chairman Daniel Levy to move to re-appoint Mauricio Pochettino before he is instilled as Chelsea boss.

Pochettino is tipped to take charge at Chelsea this summer having previously led Spurs to three successive top three league finishes – including second spot in the 2016/17 campaign – alongside guiding Spurs to their first ever Champions League final in 2019, across five years at the club.

Harry Kane had revealed he had an "honest" talk with club chairman Levy following Spurs' recent 6-1 thrashing against Newcastle over the club’s direction. That preceded Ryan Mason becoming the club’s third head coach this season after Antonio Conte and Cristian Stellini were axed in consecutive months.
