Incoming Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has reportedly given his blessing to sign Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana as part of a swap deal.

The Argentine head coach is set to improve the goalkeeping situation at Stamford Bridge, as Edouard Mendy is expected to leave after Kepa Arrizabalaga took his spot in the team.

Onana’s recent Champions League displays will only have further peaked Pochettino and Chelsea’s interest, while Mateo Kovacic could move in the opposite direction and return to the San Siro.

InterLive claim that Pochettino has approved the potential swap deal, as Chelsea have previously floated the idea of Mendy, Trevoh Chalobah and Ruben Loftus-Cheek in negotiations to land Onana.
