Mauricio Pochettino could help Todd Boehly complete his Chelsea transfer mission for Neymar, however there is a worrying problem in the way. Ever since taking over the club last summer, the Chelsea co-owner has shown strong interest in a number of football's superstars including Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Neymar.
The latter two names on that list also have links to Pochettino from their time together at Paris Saint-Germain. If Boehly brings in Pochettino as manager, the chances of the Blues acquiring either of those stars may have shot up considerably.
After dismissing Graham Potter, Chelsea look to be taking their time over their next permanent managerial appointment. Luis Enrique and Julian Nagelsmann were the early front-runners but both men are no longer in the race, with Pochettino now as the firm favourite.
