Former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino has 'turned down' Chelsea's approach for him to replace Graham Potter. The Blues have won just once in their last 10 games in all competitions with fans booing the team off the pitch after their recent 1-0 defeat against bottom-of-the-table Southampton.
Potter was chosen as the man to replace Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge back in September with Todd Boehly believing he was the right person to lead the club forward in the new long-term project. The new ownership have spent over £600million on new signings since completing a £4billion takeover last year, but things are not going well on the pitch.
football.london understands Boehly and Eghbali – for now – remain supportive of Potter and his job isn't under immediate threat. Under Roman Abramovich, Potter would likely have already been sacked but the new ownership model are willing to stand by their decision despite Champions League qualification looking highly unlikely this season.
