Mauricio Pochettino is yet to be announced as the new manager at Chelsea and transfer plans are already in place for not only his arrival but also years down the line. He is set to benefit from the long-length contracts tying down star young players to the best part of a decade at Stamford Bridge.
Both Enzo Fernandez and Mykhailo Mudryk are committed until 2030 and beyond whilst Malo Gusto, Benoit Badiashile and Noni Madueke all have feature-length deals. The mass amortisation has attracted plenty of criticism from pundits but it does hand Pochettino some stability with what the future will look like.
He is already set to clear-out a large portion of the underperforming and overpaid stars that have left the current squad bloated but will have to contend with new arrivals as well. Christopher Nkunku is already in place to join up with his new teammates on July 1 after a pre-agreement to move from RB Leipzig.
