Pochettino denies Interest in signing Mbappe for Chelsea

Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino, has dismissed rumors of trying to bring Kylian Mbappe to the club.

During his 18-month stint at the Parc des Princes, Pochettino worked closely with the 24-year-old forward.

Following Mbappe’s refusal to extend his contract beyond June 2024, Paris Saint-Germain has made him available for transfer.

In a press conference, Pochettino was asked if he would like to reunite with Mbappe at Chelsea. He responded, “From our side, I have nothing to say. We are working with our reality, and our reality is different.”

“I hope PSG and Kylian find a solution that benefits both parties. I have a deep affection for PSG. I was there as both a player and coach. I love Kylian,” Pochettino added.
