Pochettino asked Chelsea to bring in Inter goalkeeper Onana.
Pochettino has agreed that Chelsea will sign Inter goalkeeper Onana this summer, while Eduardo Mendi and kovacic will leave Stamford Bridge.
Pochettino has agreed to start coaching the Blues next season, and he is expected to fly from Spain to England next week to finalize the terms of the deal and outline his requirements for the position of head coach.
Chelsea and Inter Milan have started talks on Lu Kaku, and Lu Kaku will return to Stamford Bridge after a season on loan. Lu Kaku joined Chelsea for 97.5 million pounds two years ago, but he returned to Inter Milan on loan before the start of this season because his performance failed to meet expectations.
The Blues hope to continue to invest this summer. It has been determined that the goalkeeper’s situation is a key signing area, and at least one of Kepa and Mendi will leave this summer. Inter Milan’s Onana is Chelsea’s main target, and the Blues are willing to exchange kovacic for the goalkeeper. Kovacic’s contract expires in 2024, but Lu Kaku’s future is still uncertain.
According to reports, Chelsea had previously offered to exchange Ruben Chick, Chaloba or Mendi for Onana, but it failed. Kovacic is the latest candidate proposed by Chelsea, and it is reported that he is open to the transfer.
Onana, 27, joined Inter Milan from Ajax last summer. He played for Ajax for 214 times, and this season he played for Inter Milan for 38 times.
