The Argentine manager wants to continue his career in England but with no top Premier League managerial positions currently vacant, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/mauricio-pochettino-plenty-options-axed-chelsea-boss-replace-gareth-southgate-england-interested-man-utd/blta6dc35ddab35cf2b" target="_blank">succeeding Southgate may be his most</a> viable option.

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Football Association (FA) is yet to make a shortlist for the next Three Lions head coach. However, Pochettino's extensive experience in English football and his proven track record of developing young players make him a strong contender. During his tenure at Chelsea, he was instrumental in the growth of talents such as Cole Palmer, further bolstering his credentials for the England job.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Chelsea's agreement with Pochettino brings their expenditure on managerial changes to nearly £67 million ($85m) over the past two years under the club's new ownership. Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter both received over £13 million ($16m) in compensation after their dismissals. Additionally, Brighton received £21 million ($26m) in compensation from Chelsea for Potter's move to West London, and Leicester City was paid £10 million ($13m) to secure new coach Enzo Maresca.Pochettino's departure also involves compensation for his coaching team. Jesus Perez, Miguel d’Agostino, Toni Jimenez, and Sebastiano Pochettino, who were all under contract at Stamford Bridge until next summer, will receive pay-offs.

DID YOU KNOW?

As the FA deliberates on the next England manager, Pochettino's availability and qualifications make him a compelling option. His recent experiences and willingness to stay in England align well with the national team's future needs.
