Mauricio Pochettino Says Chelsea Should Lose 2016-17 Premier League Title Over FA Breaches
Mauricio Pochettino, former Tottenham and Chelsea manager, stated that Chelsea should be stripped of the 2016-17 Premier League title due to financial breaches. Chelsea was fined £10 million and given a suspended two-window transfer ban after admitting to 74 breaches of FA regulations involving agents and third-party investments. Pochettino argued that Tottenham, who finished second that season, deserved the title. He left Chelsea in 2024 and currently coaches the United States national team.
