Chelsea Considers Replacements Amid Concerns Over Mauricio Pochettino

Amidst growing doubts surrounding Mauricio Pochettino’s future at Chelsea, the club is reportedly exploring potential replacements, with Roberto De Zerbi of Brighton and Ruben Amorim from Sporting Lisbon emerging as potential candidates.

Despite Chelsea’s desire to support Pochettino until the end of the season, recent fan dissatisfaction during the 2-2 draw with Brentford has raised questions about the Argentinian’s tenure.

Although reports suggest that the club’s owners remain committed to Pochettino, they are also evaluating alternative options.

Todd Boehly and Clearlake, the club’s owners, are reportedly seeking continuity after a string of managerial changes last season.

However, they are also considering a long-term perspective, with both De Zerbi and Amorim being assessed as potential successors.

De Zerbi, who has garnered attention from Liverpool and Manchester United for his work at Brighton, and Amorim, who was previously on Chelsea’s shortlist, are being considered as viable options for the managerial role.

Despite their ongoing support for Pochettino, Chelsea is reportedly concerned about the team’s performance in the second half of matches under his leadership.

While the club’s priority remains to wait until the end of the season before making any decisions regarding Pochettino’s future, the pressure is mounting for improved results in the upcoming games.
