Chelsea are plotting a summer transfer swoop for Bayern Munich star Sadio Mane. The Blues are expected to appoint Mauricio Pochettino as their new head coach with the Argentine ordering Todd Boehly to pursue a deal for the former Liverpool star.
football.london understands Chelsea have held positive talks with Pochettino but no agreement has been reached as of yet. Todd Bohely is set to make a final decision on the club's new head coach this week with an announcement set to follow in due course.
Mane spent six years at Anfield and is considered to be a Liverpool icon after winning every club trophy possible with the Merseyside outfit. The Senegal international left Liverpool to join Bayern last summer but things have not gone to plan for the 31-year-old, especially after a recent bust-up with his team-mate Leroy Sane following their Champions League quarter-final first-leg defeat against Manchester City.
