Betfair has compiled a list of players tipped to sign up for Mauricio Pochettino's Stamford Bridge revolution this summer

Mauricio Pochettino has been tipped to make a variety of additions to his Chelsea squad over the summer as he is handed the reigns of the Blues.

The former Tottenham manager has a gargantuan task to filter through the squad he has adopted from outgoing interim boss Frank Lampard whilst bringing in the necessary reinforcements to get the Blues back challenging for Champions League qualification at minimum.

The Argentine officially takes over from July 1, though with the transfer window opening on June 14 there is plenty of groundwork to put in place before then. With speculation growing, Betfair has compiled a list of 13 stars they believe Chelsea will test the waters for, and two positions are a recurring theme amongst those suggested.

No prizes for guessing the first of those, as the Blues have severely lacked a consistent goalscorer over the course of the recent campaign.

Two strikers guaranteed to improve the club's situation mentioned are Napoli's Victor Osimhen (4/1) and Tottenham's Harry Kane (7/1).

The Serie A winner has scored 25 goals in 31 league appearances this campaign, whilst Kane's glittering Premier League career was overseen by Pochettino for a number of years at Chelsea's London rivals. Whilst that aspect would complicate any deal, Pochettino's involvement could persuade Kane to join him over making a switch to Manchester United this summer.

Additionally, former Liverpool forward Sadio Mane (13/8), Juventus' Dusan Vlahovic (7/2), PSG's Neymar Jr (8/1) and Brighton's Evan Ferguson (8/1) have also been tipped to sign for Chelsea.

Another area for concern hinted at by Betfair's list is midfield, as six names have been proposed to improve the current crop at Cobham.

The only odds on man on the list is Sporting's Manuel Ugarte, tipped at 8/11 to be a Blues player come the start of the season. The Uruguayan defensive midfielder has impressed in his latest domestic and European campaigns, and therefore has earned plenty of interest from England.

Also, Brighton's Moises Caicedo is back again, tipped at 5/1 to sign from Brighton. The Ecuadorian was blocked from leaving the south coast back in January following interest from both the Blues and Arsenal, though that is not expected to happen again this summer.

To round up the remaining midfielders, relegated Romeo Lavia (2/1) and James Maddison (10/1) join West Ham's Declan Rice (6/1) and Brighton's Alexis Mac Allister (12/1) as potential Pochettino signings

The final man suggested to be of interest for Pochettino is Leeds United's youthful goalkeeper Illan Meslier at odds of 5/2 following his relegation with the Yorkshire club.

As for outgoings, Betfair linked two Chelsea players with leaving the club before the start of the 2023/24 campaign.

Mason Mount's future has been analysed in recent weeks after it became clear Manchester United were frontrunners in the race for his signature. The England international has been handed 8/15 odds to join the Red Devils, ahead of bitter rivals Liverpool at 5/1.

However, if the Merseysiders miss out, they have also been tipped shorter odds at 3/1 to move for Conor Gallagher.
