Mauricio Pochettino continues to be very active on social media as Chelsea edge closer to making a decision regarding the vacant manager position at Stamford Bridge. Sources have told football.london that there is still nothing to report regarding an imminent agreement between the Blues and Pochettino - despite a number of positive talks between the two parties.
Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali had met with other Chelsea figures in Los Angeles last week with the hope of coming to a final decision on who to appoint as Graham Potter's successor. Julian Nagelsmann had been the leading candidate for the job before he pulled out of the race due to concerns about the Blues' recruitment strategy.
The west Londoners have spent over £500million on new signings since Boehly arrived as co-owner, but performances on the pitch have failed to improve with the squad now inflated with over 30 players in the senior team. There are a number of serious issues that need to be addressed by the ownership and next manager before next season as Frank Lampard continues to struggle as caretaker boss.
