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.

Pochettino is understood to be the leading candidate to take the hot seat at Stamford Bridge - but he has set a number of demands when holding talks with Chelsea. The 51-year-old would like to bring his own coaching staff with him to the club, if appointed, including assistant Jesus Perez, first-team coach Miguel D'Agostino, goalkeeping coach Toni Jimenez and Sebastiano, his son, who works as a sports scientist.
A report from the Evening Standard also stated that the Argentinian wants 'significant influence' over the direction of the club, which would likely include transfers. Pochettino does not have an agent so he has been representing himself – and it seems as if he's doing a good job.
The former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain boss has now posted pictures of him enjoying his time away from football as he met up with his two sons, Sebastiano and Maurizio. Pochettino posted a second picture of the three of them with Pochettino's wife enjoying some family time together.
This comes after Pochettino posted a snap of him out walking his Rhodesian ridgeback puppy, Sana Mandela. It's clear that Pochettino is in no rush to jump back into management as he enjoys time with his family at his home and may tie in to the fact there is no imminent announcement expected from Chelsea regarding their next managerial appointment.
