Chelsea in the hunt for brilliant Argentinian World Cup winner

As Chelsea approaches this weekend’s FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City, they recognize it as their final opportunity to secure European qualification for the season.

The outcome of this crucial fixture could significantly impact Mauricio Pochettino’s future as manager, as owner Todd Boehly is known for his decisive approach to managerial changes.

Should Pochettino fail to deliver a trophy and European football next season, Boehly may not hesitate to part ways with the Argentinian manager.

Despite the possibility of Chelsea qualifying for the Europa Conference League through their remaining Premier League games, Boehly’s ambitious goals likely demand more.

Furthermore, rumors suggest that Chelsea is eyeing Paulo Dybala, Pochettino’s compatriot and World Cup winner, for a potential move to Stamford Bridge next season, as reported by football journalist Rudy Galetti.

According to Galetti’s post on X (formerly Twitter), both Chelsea and Barcelona have made inquiries regarding the potential acquisition of a player from AS Roma, who is under contract until 2025.

The cost of securing the 30-year-old’s services from the Giallorossi remains uncertain at this stage, but his wealth of experience could be invaluable to any team that manages to sign him.

With Chelsea’s recent successful deal with the Serie A club for Romelu Lukaku, they may feel optimistic about their chances of securing Dybala’s signature.

If Roma fails to secure Champions League qualification, Romelu Lukaku’s future at the club could be uncertain. Consequently, Chelsea’s pursuit of Dybala might face obstacles, as he may not be inclined to join a team competing in a lower-tier European competition.

Additionally, Dybala’s international captain, Lionel Messi, could provide valuable guidance to his compatriot amidst potential transfer decisions.
