Former Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has backed Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino to get the best of Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez.

Aguero believes Pochettino is the ideal manager for Chelsea’s £107million club-record signing Fernandez to learn and grow under.

“His input can be very valuable. Already at Tottenham he has shown his worth and that he empowers young players,” Aguero told Stake.com.

“He has a big task ahead of him because he has a very large squad and he will have to find a balance.

“Chelsea, in addition to the previous market in which it has had many new signings, has had a policy of buying young players who can get to assemble very well. You have to give him time to do his job and I’m sure you’ll see the results.”

Specifically on Enzo, Aguero added: “As I said, Poch always empowers his young players, and Enzo is one of those.

“This was his first season in England and although Chelsea did not perform well, he showed that he is up to the task of this great league. I think that with Pochettino’s hand he will perform even more and better.”
