Todd Boehly continues to learn on the job as Chelsea co-owner after Mauricio Pochettino was confirmed as the new head coach for the upcoming season. After a deal was agreed between the two parties earlier in the month, the Argentine was finally announced less than 24 hours after Frank Lampard's last game as interim boss.
Pochettino, who became the preferred candidate for the job after Julian Nagelsmann and Luis Enrique were ruled out of the running during an exhaustive and thorough process, will now have a full pre-season to prepare for a big summer. Chelsea are expected to go through major change with a mass exodus of players following the announcement of the new manager.
It is a process of clearing out the heavily bloated squad that many will say needed to happen last year. Since then, Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter have been moved on as the Stamford Bridge hot seat looked as unstable as ever. There has been a distinct change of direction here, though.
