Mauricio Pochettino is considering quitting his Chelsea job if he is not granted more influence over the club’s transfer decisions. Chelsea’s relatively strong finish to the season, which saw them secure sixth place on the final day, Pochettino’s frustration with the club’s transfer policy could lead to his departure.

The Argentine manager has been unhappy with his limited role in recruitment over the past two transfer windows and desires more control in shaping the squad. Pochettino wants to keep the England midfielder, but Boehly and Eghbali are open to selling him to comply with Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations.
He also wants to keep Conor Gallagher, but Boehly and Eghbali are open to offers for the England midfielder to help balance PSR restrictions. Pochettino has previously stated that he is in the dark about his Stamford Bridge future but hopes to clear the air when he meets with the club’s owners to plan for next season.
