Todd Boehly prepares six welcoming gifts for Mauricio Pochettino as Chelsea transfer plan clear

Todd Boehly looks set to welcome Mauricio Pochettino to Cobham training ground with six housewarming presents. The American billionaire is eager to ensure that the newly-appointed Chelsea boss hits the ground running, so several arrangements have been put in place.

Last month, football.london revealed that an agreement was reached with Pochettino to become the Blues' new head coach following weeks of positive conversations. After penning an initial two-year contract, with the option for a third, Pochettino will officially start his role as manager on July 1, meaning he has a full pre-season to get his feet under the table and begin planning for next term.

The west Londoners have already welcomed 14 new faces to club since Boehly took the helm at Stamford Bridge, tallying around £600million in fees. While the former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain boss will be treated to the likes of Enzo Fernandez, Mykhailo Mudryk and Wesley Fofana, he faces the difficult task of lifting team morale after miserable end to the season under Frank Lampard.
