Mauricio Pochettino to leave Chelsea for Milan?! Serie A club linked with swoop to appoint Argentine as they plan for life after Stefano Pioli

The Rossoneri are all set to part ways with their current manager Stefano Pioli as the Italian will leave San Siro after four and a half years at the end of the current season. The club have already begun their search for their next head coach and have been linked with several names including former Real Madrid and Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui, Brighton's Roberto De Zerbi and Mark van Bommel.

Now Calciomercato reports that the latest name that has been linked with the Serie A side is Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino. The Argentine has endured a turbulent first season in charge of the Blues which has led to speculation he could be fired.

The former Tottenham Hotspur coach has managed to turn things around at Stamford Bridge in the final few games of the season as the West London side remain unbeaten in their last three Premier League games and are on a three-match winning streak.

Pochettino's side will be next seen in action on Wednesday as they take on Roberto De Zerbi's Brighton in a vital league fixture away from home.
