Mauricio Pochettino dubbed a ‘real lion’ as Nicolas Jackson appears to doubt Chelsea owners’ choice to break ways with the Argentine manager

Date:

Nicolas Jackson looks to be furious over Chelsea’s decision to fire Mauricio Pochettino, as the striker expressed praise to the Argentine on social media.

Pochettino resigned as Blues manager on Tuesday following only one season in charge, despite leading the club to European qualifying at the end of the Premier League season. Jackson used Instagram to show his appreciation for the Argentine, appearing to throw the Chelsea owners’ choice into doubt.

Jackson posted an image that showed Pochettino reaching out to embrace the Senegal international, but he added two facepalm emojis to it. In another post, he wrote: “Love you, coach. Wish we could stay together more. But may God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks for the advice and support, you’re a true lion and fighter, wish you all the best.” lion and fighter, wish you all the best.”Nicolas Jackson Mauricio Pochettino instagram

Jackson joined Chelsea from Villarreal last summer and enjoyed a good season in personal terms after adapting to his new surroundings. The forward netted 17 times in all competitions for Pochettino’s team, helping them secure a sixth-place finish in the Premier League.

Jackson will soon be playing under a new manager at Stamford Bridge. There are several early candidates to replace Pochettino, with Bayern boss Thomas Tuchel linked with a return to the club and Stuttgart manager Sebastian Hoeness also in the frame. Roberto De Zerbi is now a free agent after leaving Brighton and Ipswich’s Kieran McKenna has also been highlighted.
