Mauricio Pochettino, the former Tottenham Hotspur manager, has demanded that Chelsea be stripped of their 2016-17 Premier League title. The Argentine claims that Tottenham should have been awarded the championship, which they finished runners-up to Antonio Conte's Chelsea that season. Pochettino argues that Chelsea broke historical transfer rules involving undisclosed payments connected to transfers and third parties, and should have been punished accordingly.
Despite Chelsea's fine of £10.75 million for these breaches, they remain officially recognized as the champions of the 2016-17 Premier League season.
