Thiago Silva has already reacted to Mauricio Pochettino move to Chelsea
As we all know Chelsea take a break from action this weekend in what will likely be a relief to Frank Lampard and Blues supporters.
However, The Blues are currently on a four-match losing run since the former midfielder returned to Stamford Bridge as interim boss as Graham Potter’s replacement. Their latest reverse came last weekend against Brighton.
However, due to this weekend’s opponents Manchester United being in FA Cup action, Chelsea get a matchday off. That will give Todd Boehly and the club hierarchy some time to continue their search for the new man at the helm.
With all of that being said, take a look at all of the headlines coming out of Stamford Bridge from over the past 24 hours.
Chelsea defender Thiago Silva gives Pochettino approval
Chelsea veteran Thiago Silva previously hailed Mauricio Pochettino’s knowledge of football as the Argentine edges towards a move to Stamford Bridge. The former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain boss has held talks with the Stamford Bridge hierarchy regarding the prospect of taking the reins in west London.
Speaking after the Argentine’s arrival at PSG after replacing ex-Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel, the Brazilian defender said: “Mauricio Pochettino did a good job with Tottenham, I think he comes very motivated, 20 years after playing for PSG. He knows the club a bit
“Of course that has changed a lot, but he knows football a lot, he will work with very high level players. I am still a supporter of PSG.”
