Report: ‘Pochettino Agrees’ Terms As New Chelsea Boss
Mauricio Pochettino has ‘”agreed terms” to become Chelsea’s new head coach.
Pochettino emerged as a frontrunner for the Stamford Bridge hot seat following Graham Potter’s sacking in April.
According to the Daily Telegraph’s Matt Law, the Argentine’s appointment could be announced within a matter of days.
Pochettino is set to take the reins in the Premier League for a third time, having previously been manager at Southampton and Tottenham.
His five-year stay in north London saw the club make a series of title challenges while also reaching the 2019 Champions League final.
But a downturn in results saw him sacked with Spurs languishing in mid-table just five months after their European showpiece appearance.
The 51-year-old later spent 18 months in charge of former club Paris Saint-Germain but left despite reclaiming their Ligue 1 title.
