Chelsea stumbled to their 10th Premier League defeat this season against Wolves. A hat-trick from Matheus Cunha and an own goal from Axel Disasi saw the Blues slip at home to a 2-4 home defeat to Gary O'Neil's side.
Chelsea fans have been mounting pressure on the club's board to part ways with Mauricio Pochettino as the club continue on their stuttering start to the season under the watch of the Argentine. But there is a problem. Chelsea are more likely to breach Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) should they decide to part ways with Mauricio Pochettino
What is Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules?
The Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules is a financial control framework designed to checkmate excessive spending by Premier League clubs and ensure they are in accordance with sustainable financial practices. It stipulates an optimal spending cap for all Football Clubs in the English football system.
Based on the rules, no Premier League club is allowed to record losses amounting to £105m over three seasons.
How will Premier League Profit and Sustainability Rules Affect Chelsea If They Sack Mauricio Pochettino?
According football finance experts, Chelsea are already on a steep slope and are at risk of breaching PSR debt cap of £105m. The situation has been attributed to Todd Boehly's £1bn splurge on the transfer market since he took over as the club's new owner.
As things stand, experts estimate Chelsea will need to raise tens of millions of pounds at the end of the season before they can escape Premier League penalty for financial breaches.
Sacking Mauricio Pochettino now will reportedly worsen the situation. Pochettino and his backroom staff will be due a £13m payoff package should Chelsea decide to sack him now. This will further drag the club close to breaching PSR limit of £105m.
As per Daily Mail, Chelsea's most feasible route out of the current is through player sales. The club had recognized this and wanted to push through sales of the club's homegrown players such as Conor Gallagher, Armando Broja, and Trevoh Chalobah. They failed to broker a permeant transfer deal for the player as their £50m price deterred suitors. It was at the stroke of the January transfer window, that they could only broker a loan deal for the player while Conor Gallagher and Trevor Chalobah stayed put.
