Pochettino had at least eight contract offers, three from Premier League sides, before opting to become the new boss at Chelsea, where 'everything fits'.
Leeds among PL trio snubbed by Pochettino as Balague reveals three keys to Chelsea dealMauricio Pochettino reportedly turned down at least eight contract offers following his exit from Paris Saint-Germain, before his deal to join Chelsea.
Balague said: “He hasn’t been short of offers since leaving Paris, but none have ticked as many boxes as Chelsea have, certainly in this second round of negotiations with the club. “He has received approaches from Benfica, Athletic Bilbao, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest. Sevilla also made contact, as did Villarreal, Nice and Leeds [United].
Pochettino was reportedly in contention to take over from Thomas Tuchel in September before Todd Boehly gave the job to Potter, but Balague says Pochettino will be granted more “control” now than he was then.
