Pochettino reveals Chelsea transfer meeting due

Chelsea's owners and co-sporting directors will be meeting with the manager Mauricio Pochettino this week.

The club are hoping to iron out their plans for the upcoming summer transfer window.

Per The Standard, Pochettino's job is not the subject of the meeting, despite the pressure he is under.

Chelsea posted pre-tax losses of £90.1 million on Thursday, which will impact the ability to spend in the summer.

The Blues have put in more than £1 billion in transfer fees on a very young squad.

Asked on spending, Pochettino told reporters: “I don't know. I don't know because I need to be informed. Until today, we haven't talked about that.

“Today the club announced the finances. This afternoon or tomorrow we will talk, and after tomorrow I will be informed for sure. But I don't know what is going to happen.

“I only just saw that the club announced it. But I've still not spoken with the owners or the sporting director. I cannot give my opinion on it. I don't know anything."
