Mauricio Pochettino appears to have planned out his first three transfers as Chelsea manager. The former Tottenham boss has been heavily linked with the vacant head coach position at Stamford Bridge for a while now, and he's expected to be unveiled as such ahead of the summer.
football.london understands that Pochettino has agreed a deal to take the hot seat in the Blues dugout at the end of the season. After weeks of positive negotiations, the two parties finally reached an agreement just hours after the west Londoners' draw with Nottingham Forest.
It's believed that the 51-year-old will be in London this week to sign his contract and tie up any loose ends. Pochettino is expected to sign a three-year deal with Chelsea – and he's already laying the foundations for his seemingly imminent arrival.
