Mauricio Pochettino Drops Hint on Number of Summer Signings for Chelsea
Mauricio Pochettino has suggested the extent of potential transfers at Chelsea this summer following their final Premier League victory over Bournemouth, where Moises Caicedo and Raheem Sterling secured a 2-1 win.
With the Blues finishing sixth in the Premier League, their European fate hinges on the outcome of the FA Cup final. Pochettino indicated that he aims to retain “80-85%” of the current squad for next season.
While acknowledging the need for improvement, Pochettino emphasized the advantage of continuity and experience gained from a challenging season. This suggests a preference for stability rather than wholesale changes in the transfer market.
“Next season if we keep 80-85% of the squad, for sure, it is a big step forward because it is about having continuity in the ideas and the knowledge between them. That is important for the club.”
When asked if he envisaged more transfers being made, Pochettino was coy with what he expects to happen this summer.
“That is a club decision,” said the Chelsea boss. “Like it was from the beginning, we are going to be there to help and if not, we are going to do our job.”
