Report: Mauricio Pochettino has decided who he doesn't want to take on Chelsea's pre-season tour
Reports have claimed that Mauricio Pochettino already knows which players he does not want to take on Chelsea’s pre-season tour of the US.
According to The Telegraph, the new manager would ideally like all of the squad’s wantaway players to be out of the club before they travel to the United States in around three weeks’ time.
Despite not yet starting work officially at the club, Pochettino has already made his presence known with players that he wants to keep, sell and sign for his new club.
There have been a number of reports that have suggested which players the Argentine is looking to build his side around. Perhaps the most exciting one of these for a Chelsea supporter is Levi Colwill.
Despite great interest from Brighton, who had the pleasure of having him on loan last season, the Blues are now insistent he is part of their plans to feature next season.
This is perhaps backed up by the recent sale of Kalidou Koulibaly, after Pochettino made it clear that he was not part of his plans going forward.
There will be a number of first team players the former Tottenham boss has decided are not in his plans for next season, and therefore the aim will be to keep them away from the tour of America.
The report states one of these players is Romelu Lukaku, despite the Belgium international being about to return from his loan deal at Inter Milan.
Despite the manager’s original openness to work with the striker, he has made it clear that he is looking to get another move to Italy after just one season back at Stamford Bridge.
