Who to coach Chelsea? We know that it will not be Julian Nagelsmann or Luis Enrique. In recent hours, various sources have mentioned a shortlist of three names, Mauricio Pochettino (free), Vincent Kompany (Burnley, English L2) and… a mystery guest. Apparently it is Celtic manager Ange Postecoglu, according to the Guardian and other media. There would, however, be a very clear favorite according to The Athletic and many other sources: Pochettino. Free since his forced departure from PSG last summer, the Argentinian technician is a priori on pole to take over from Graham Potter and the current interim coach of the London team.
Remember that “Poche”, 51, is anything but an unknown in English football, he who coached Southampton (2013-14) and of course Tottenham (2014-19), notably guiding Spurs to the League final champions in 2019. He then coached Paris-SG between the start of 2021 and the end of the 2021-22 campaign.
