The incoming Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has warned the club’s hierarchy that positioning the Blues to start contending for titles won’t happen at once.
He warned that it would take two years to fix the West London outfit and make the Blues title challengers once again.
Pochettino is set to be announced as the manager at Stamford Bridge and will take over permanently from Frank Lampard, who was appointed in the interim after Graham Potter was sacked for his abysmal performance.
The 51-year-old will be in charge from next season, officially taking over by the summer.
Chelsea have endured their worst campaign for several months, slipping to 11th in the Premier League – closer to the relegation zone than the Champions League places.
According to report, the Argentine believes he can get Chelsea in better shape by this time next year.
