Pochettino has accepted all of the terms of the long-term contract, so everything is set for him to take over at Stamford Bridge.

According to reports, the Argentine manager has given a lot of weight to signing players with Premier League experience.

In an update on the Blues’ approach in the forthcoming summer transfer window, CBS Sports journalist Ben Jacobs said to GivemeSport:

“Pochettino has also emphasized how crucial it is to have players with Premier League experience.

“However, despite having a strategy, the January window was heavily focused on young people. They didn’t hesitate to recruit players from all over the world.

“Malo Gusto, the Brazilian Andre Santos, and the Argentine Enzo Fernandez arrived from Benfica. They acquired Mudryk, a Champions League player with no prior Premier League experience.
