Former Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino is the favourite to replace Potter at Chelsea manager, with Boehly clearly being a fan of a manager with an attacking proactive approach.
The 50-year-old was most recently manager of PSG and has missed out on a series of big jobs since his exit from the Parc des Princes, with the Argentian being linked with the Manchester United job prior to Erik ten Hag’s appointment.
Pochettino’s first job in England came all the way back in January 2013 when he managed Southampton up until May 2014, taking over from Nigel Adkins, laying the foundations for the Saints to challenge for Europe on a regular basis, having developed the likes of Adam Lallana, Jay Rodriguez, Jose Fonte, Toby Alderweireld, Morgan Schneiderlin and more.
Following his time at St Mary’s, Pochettino went on to manage Tottenham, where his management skills saw them progress from a side that regularly qualified for the Europa League to a club that regularly competed for Champions League football - notably reaching the Champions League final in 2019 when they finished as runners-up to Liverpool.
After his time at Spurs, Pochettino returned to his former club PSG, where he managed to win three trophies in two years, but, this and his lack of success in the Champions League saw patience wear thin between himself and the PSG hierarchy, resulting in his departure last summer.
Noticeably, Chelsea have made a series of young signings, which would match the Argentinian's ethos, and with the Stamford Bridge club having a lot of financial power in the transfer market, could he be tempted to move to the Premier League outfit?
