Pochettino, who only joined Chelsea last season was sacked after the Boehly and his technical directors had a sit down meeting with him for two days to discuss the team transfer strategy. He joined the list of talented managers who left the Blues during Boehly’s tenure as the owner.
Some of the names that are likely to be considered include Kieran McKenna, the current Ipswich Town manager, Brentford’s Thomas Frank and Enzo Maresca who is currently associated with Leicester City.
Other speculations mention possible for Thomas Tuchel, or even José Mourinho to come back to the team, but they are highly improbable under the new shareholders.
However, Chelsea continues to have ink on the water and recently opened the search for a new manager. Boehly is expected to make significant transfers in the coming summer window given uncertainties surrounding the future of players such as Conor Gallagher and Trevoh Chalobah.
In the course of the two-year period of the time frame, they have released £1 billion for new arrivals in the club, still, they have been counteracting the kind of expenditure by outstanding player sales.
Particularly, significant transfers were accomplished such as Mason Mount’s £55 million transfer to Manchester United and Kai Havertz’s £65 million transfer to Arsenal on FFP.

Another of Chelsea performers arriving at the club in recent transfers is Malo Gusto, a 21-year-old footballer who transferred to Chelsea from Olympique Lyon for £25 million but signed at the age of 19. Gusto penned a long-term contract, a seven-year one to be precise, which means the midfielder will be a part of the team until 2030.
Originally signed to play as the backup to the club captain Reece James, Gusto has demonstrated his effectiveness in the Premier League owing to James’ injury.
Chelsea are looking to hire Bradley Locko. He has now shown his talent in the Brest side that came third in Ligue 1 – only six points behind the second-placed Monaco in the French top-flight league football.
Brest willingness to sell Locko for £25 million the same amount Chelsea paid for Gusto is a good chance for the Blues.
Some of the highlights that define Locko’s impressive performance report is higher rating when compared to Marc Cucurella and Ben Chilwell in relation to long pass completion %, ball recovery per 90 minutes, progressive passes per 90 minutes and interceptions per 90 minutes according to FbRef.
It will add much-needed depth at the left fullback position to Chelsea if they sign Locko because Cucurella and Chilwell have long-term injuries.
