Chelsea have appointed former Tottenham and Paris St-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino as their new manager.

 


The Argentine, 51, begins his new role on 1 July 2023 on a two-year contract, with an option of a further year.

 

Interim boss Frank Lampard took Chelsea to 12th in the Premier League - their lowest finish for more than 25 years.

 

Chelsea say Pochettino was first choice and the only manager who was brought into the club for talks.

 

Pochettino is Chelsea's sixth permanent manager in five years following the sacking of Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter earlier this season, which led to Lampard taking charge on a temporary basis.
