BREAKING: MAURICIO POCHETTINO LEAVES CHELSEA BY MUTUAL CONSENT
By Ajape Sefiu A.
Chelsea have confirmed manager, Mauricio Pochettino has left the club by mutual consent.
Pochettino agreed to his departure with Chelsea late on Tuesday morning, following the club’s end-of-season review that started on Monday, according to the Telegraph.
The Argentine joined the Blues in July 2023, overseeing a 6th-place finish in the 2023/2024 premier league season.
However, all season long, there have been uncertainty around Pochettino’s future after a difficult start to life at Stamford Bridge.
The Argentine’s departure means that he spent one year of the two-year contract he signed last summer and is in line to pocket a significant compensation fee.
Among the names likely to be considered as his replacement include Stuttgart’s Sebastian Hoeness, Girona’s Michel, Ipswich Town’s Kieran McKenna, who has been lined up by Brighton, and Leicester City’s Enzo Maresca.
