Pochettino’s firing “may be announced next week,” as Chelsea has stated. The possibility that Mourinho could make a spectacular comeback.

According to rumors, Mauricio Pochettino may be fired next week, opening the door for Jose Mourinho to possibly return to Chelsea.

Pochettino’s team is currently 11th in the Premier League with 12 games left, which is an improvement over last season but still below average overall.

Chelsea’s difficulties this season have been made clear by the fact that they had to wait until the 83rd minute to equalize against Brentford in their most recent game.

Pochettino said, “I didn’t hear it, but it’s understandable given our performance,” in response to chants from the crowd demanding for his dismissal and the return of Mourinho. In my role as coach, I accept accountability.

Pochettino expressed his resolve to win over the supporters and underlined his dedication to raising the team’s performance. He also acknowledged the fans’ frustrations.

Under Todd Boehly’s ownership, Chelsea has made significant investments, but on the field, Chelsea has fallen short of expectations.

An announcement is anticipated this coming week regarding Boehly’s potential decision to end Pochettino’s contract, according to reports from the Spanish newspaper Nacional. Mourinho, who departed Roma early in the campaign, might be appointed in his place.

Chelsea’s board is considering bringing back Mourinho as they prepare for yet another dismal season, which raises questions about their performance going forward and the necessity of a leadership transition.
