Mauricio Pochettino has given Chelsea his blessing to sign Inter goalkeeper Andre Onana this summer with Edouard Mendy and Mateo Kovacic set to be among the Stamford Bridge exits.
The former Tottenham boss has agreed terms to take charge at the Blues from the start of next season. The Argentine is expected to fly into the UK in the next week from Spain to finalise the terms of a deal and outline his requirements for the role.
Chelsea and Inter are already set to be in negotiations this summer over Romelu Lukaku, who is set to return to Stamford Bridge following a season-long loan back at Inter. The Belgian joined Chelsea in a blockbuster £97.5million move two years ago but after struggling to live up to expectations, was shipped back out to the Serie A outfit on loan before the start of the 2022/23 campaign.
