Mauricio Pochettino’s tenure at Chelsea came to a surprising end after the club and the Argentine manager agreed to part ways by mutual consent.
departure comes after just one season at the helm, where he led Chelsea to a sixth-place finish in the Premier League and secured European football for the upcoming season.
Despite reaching the Carabao Cup final and the FA Cup semi-finals, Pochettino’s stint at Chelsea fell short of expectations.
The club hierarchy met with Pochettino to discuss his future, and both parties reached an agreement for him to leave.
The search for a new manager at Chelsea is now underway, with names like Kieran McKenna and Roberto De Zerbi being linked to the vacant position.
This marks the third permanent manager Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has seen depart since his arrival in May 2022, following the exits of Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter.
