Mauricio Pochettino backed to make Chelsea manager u-turn to rejoin Tottenham by former star

Former Tottenham star Victor Wanyama has claimed that Mauricio Pochettino would pick Spurs over rivals Chelsea if he had the choice between managing the two sides. Both London clubs are in search of a new head coach going into the summer, with their projects in need of new guidance.

The Blues have managed to have four different managers in the dugout this season, with Thomas Tuchel, Graham Potter, Bruno Saltor and Frank Lampard all taking the reigns. After a chaotic 12 months, the next appointment from Todd Boehly and his regime will have to be the right one.

Pochettino has emerged the favourite, though a thorough process means that he is yet to be decided upon as the next manager. The former PSG boss is closing in on the job, football.london understands, with positive talks held, but no sign of when there will be a conclusion.
