Pochettino was sacked by Paris Saint-Germain at the end of last season.

And while he has been linked with a move to Manchester United and return to Tottenham, he finally appears to have landed in West London.

The ex-Spurs boss has reportedly compiled his transfer wishlist as he prepares to do business in the summer.

According to The Mail, Argentina striker Lautaro Martinez is Pochettino’s No1 option when it comes to bringing in a centre-forward.

The Inter Milan star, 25, is seen as an alternative to Napoli’s Victor Osimhen – who is also on Chelsea‘s radar but is the subject of much interest from Manchester United.

Another compatriot Pochettino is eyeing up is Aston Villa keeper Emi Martinez.

The 30-year-old World Cup winner has been mooted as a possible signing for Spurs, but Chelsea could look to hijack the deal and establish him as their No1 ahead of Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy.

West Ham captain Declan Rice is another target of Pochettino’s as he looks set to leave the London Stadium at the end of the season.

The England midfielder, 24, is receiving interest from Arsenal and Manchester United, but Chelsea are aware he was a boyhood Blues fan.

And Brighton’s Alexis Mac Allister is the fifth and final man on Pochettino’s hitlist.

His agent has confirmed he will depart Brighton in the summer, with Liverpool another potential destination.

They may have to break the bank however, with the Seagulls reportedly looking for around £70m for the World Cup winner.
