Mauricio Pochettino Given Time till the Summer, Could be Sacked after the Season Ends!
Chelsea and Mauricio Pochettino have a longstanding agreement to assess his role at the club at the season's end, according to 90min sources. Despite a lackluster first half of the season, Chelsea's impressive 3-1 FA Cup win over Aston Villa has boosted Pochettino's standing.
However, with Chelsea slipping into the bottom half of the Premier League, a crucial February, including the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool, lies ahead. As per reports, Pochettino's position isn't immediately threatened as the Chelsea owners recognize the necessity of patience with a young squad. Injuries have hindered Pochettino from fielding his strongest lineup consistently, and the team's younger members need time to acclimate to the Premier League.
According to 90min, Upon joining Chelsea last year, Pochettino agreed to a "two-way appraisal" this summer, allowing both the club's owners and Pochettino to discuss the club's direction. Although he signed a three-year contract, only the first two seasons are guaranteed, with the third year being a club option.
Chelsea's preference is to complete the season with Pochettino at the helm, fostering a genuine desire for long-term success. The summer review will provide a platform for both parties to chart the club's course forward.
