Mauricio Pochettino outlines Chelsea transfer plan with final squad overhaul date set

Chelsea are preparing to be very active in the transfer market in June as Mauricio Pochettino looks to have a finalised squad in place for pre-season. The Blues are looking to move on a number of senior players and trim down the squad size whilst adding a few new additions in key areas of the team.

football.london understands a new goalkeeper, central midfielder and striker are on Pochettino's agenda this summer. Todd Boehly has spent over £600million on new signings in the last 12 months - with many players failing to match expectations following their arrivals.

Pochettino will be working closely with Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley behind the scenes ahead of his official start date as Chelsea aim to meet his transfer demands. Talks are reportedly ongoing with Sporting CP over a deal to sign Manuel Ugarte, whilst Ruben Loftus-Cheek has given his green light for a move to AC Milan.
