Mauricio Pochettino is now apparently the favorite for the coaching position

Mauricio Pochettino is a report by Guardians according to the new favorite for the coaching post at Chelsea. Following the sacking of Graham Potter, Frank Lampard is currently coaching the Blues on an interim basis until the end of the season.

After Julian Nagelsmann, who was released from FC Bayern Munich a few weeks ago, canceled the Londoners, the way should now be clear for Pochettino. The Argentine had convinced the club officials of his ideas in a conversation, he writes Guardians.

According to the report, Vincent Kompany (FC Burnley) and former Spanish national coach Luis Enrique are also possible candidates.

Pochettino is no stranger to the Premier League. After a season at FC Southampton, the 51-year-old coached Tottenham Hotspur from 2014 to 2019. He reached the final of the Champions League with Spurs in 2019. His last stop so far was Paris Saint-Germain in the 2021/22 season.
