Mauricio Pochettino said he is proud to become the manager of Chelsea and is confident he can get them challenging for the Premier League title again despite a dismal campaign last season. 'We have the quality, we will add more quality “ the past is in the past, you need to move on,' the Argentinian said at his official unveiling. 'I'm a positive person, I see positive things.'

Pochettino was hired in May on a two-year contract to replace the interim coach Frank Lampard after a terrible season where the club finished 12th in the Premier League and sacked both Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter. This is Pochettino s first coaching role since leaving PSG in July last year and marks his return to the English top flight after an impressive five-year spell with Tottenham.
