Mauricio Pochettino is looking to make significant moves in the January transfer window, targeting Napoli’s Victor Osimhen and Brentford’s Ivan Toney. Despite their substantial spending of nearly £1 billion over the last three transfer windows, Chelsea is now empowering Pochettino with a more prominent role in transfer decisions. Reports from The Guardian suggest that the Argentine manager is keen on recruiting the unsettled Napoli star Osimhen and will also be competing with Arsenal for the signature of Brentford’s Toney.
In the broader context, despite their extensive summer signings, Chelsea’s Premier League campaign has started on a disastrous note, with just one win in their first six games.
