Leaving Tottenham Hostpur to join London rivals Chelsea ‘would not be a logical move’ for Mauricio Pochettino, according to former Blues director Christian Purslow.

The ex-Liverpool and Chelsea commercial chief joined talkSPORT on Tuesday to react to reports that Pochettino is the Blues’ number-one target to replace under-fire Antonio Conte this summer.

Pochettinho has invited speculation over his future as Tottenham manager in recent weeks, suggesting after Sunday’s 5-4 win over Leicester in their final game of the season that he wants greater backing from the board over transfers.
