Pochettino to Chelsea, is the deal completed now?

I have been following the deal and some slight confusions of Todd but it seems it became obvious and clearer that Poch was the man for the job. Is the deal legally sealed? Or are there further delays.

Earlier today I go a funny news that Totenham interim coach was sacked. I have never heard a scenario were an interim coach was sacked before Grin

Is it normal?

According to Fabrizio Romano's tweet [1] there's no deal yet, but Pochettino is high likely will become Chelsea's coach. Personally I don't think Pochettino will make a big change, he was Tottenham's coach before and Tottenham never become a champion even though we're know Tottenham is black horse in Premier League. However Chelsea has no choice too, there's no good coach they can sign.

It's really unusual to see a club sack their interim coach, I can't remember which interim coach had been sacked before.

Ok, thank you for your response.
Could it be that Todd is deliberately delaying the deal to see if he will get a better chance. From his body language, I don't think he has much hope on Pochettino and onr other thing is that he is looking for a long term coach. He is not willing to be hiring and dismissing coaches every season.

But when Poch was in Tottenham, he did some pretty work even without worldclass players. It is not only the coach that we secure a title for Totenham, the management has a bigger work to do.

According to a reliable news source Chelsea will soon reach an agreement with Pochettino ward off a possible move by Tottenham to lure him back to the club after sacking their interim manager Stellini, I believe Pochettino will reposition Chelsea if he is eventually appointed as their manager he did well at Tottenham by helping the club to reach UCL finals unfortunately lost to Liverpool and had a good record with PSG, however I expect Chelsea owner Boehly to avoid interference with club when a new manager resumes and allow them to take decision, from the look of things it's seem Boehly had some influence on day to day running of the club which had negative impact on the club.
