Chelsea are closing in on the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino as the club's the new manager. Reports have suggested Todd Boehly is set to make a final decision on the Blues' new head coach this week with an announcement expected in the coming days.
football.london reported earlier this month that whilst no agreement has been reached yet between Chelsea and Pochettino, talks have been very positive between the two parties. Pochettino has been without a job after leaving PSG following their Ligue 1 title success at the end of the 2021/22 season.
The Argentine has set a series of demands during discussions with the west Londoners including bringing in his own backroom staff to assist him, if he is appointed as Potter's successor. Frank Lampard is set to assist the transition from the end of his role as caretaker manager into the summer transfer window.
