Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is under huge pressure (Picture: Getty)Chelsea have been put off sacking their head coach Mauricio Pochettino amid concerns over breaking Premier League spending rules, according to reports. The Argentine is under huge pressure at Stamford Bridge following Sunday’s 4-2 home defeat to Wolves with Jose Mourinho among the favourites to replace him. But according to the Daily Mail, sacking Pochettino is not that straightforward for the Chelsea hierarchy, who are worried about profit and sustainability rules (PSR). Any pay-off agreed before June would count towards PSR with Chelsea already walking a financial tightrope having spent huge money on new players. That means that Chelsea may decide to keep Pochettino until at least the end of the season despite increasing calls from Blues fans to sack their head coach.
