Mauricio Pochettino Has Meeting Plan For Chelsea Trio He Looks To Finalise Squad

Mauricio Pochettino is doing all in his power to overhaul the Chelsea team, including making difficult decisions about the futures of numerous bright young prospects.

Pochettino is determined to streamline his team after a demanding preseason tour of the United States.

He has learned important lessons from the previous season’s campaign, in which Chelsea’s performances were negatively impacted by an overly large squad.

Lesley Ugochukwu, a recent addition, Andrey Santos, and Cesare Casadei, will be the subject of a post-tour meeting with co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley in London.

Although Pochettino has hinted at the possibility of sending them out on loan, he stressed that no final decisions have been made yet.

“When we finish the tour, we are going to sit, we are already working with the sporting directors, with Paul and Laurence, sharing ideas and we can see how we define the squad,” he said.

“They have the possibility, maybe they go on loan. At the moment, nothing is closed.”

Chelsea have a proven track record of utilisng the loan market to nurture their young talents, allowing them to return as more polished individuals, either commanding higher transfer fees or securing first-team opportunities.

Meanwhile, Pochettino himself has gained a reputation for his ability to develop young players, reports the Mirror.

However, striking the right balance between promising prospects and experienced first-team members is crucial.

The Blues remain engaged in discussions to secure the services of defender Axel Disasi from Monaco for a fee of £38.6m and they are also pursuing Brighton duo Moises Caicedo and Robert Sanchez.
