Alan Brazil has told the Morning Breakfast Show, which was broadcast on TalkSPORT on 29th January, that he thinks Mauricio Pochettino will leave Tottenham Hotspur for Real Madrid.

Sky Sports have claimed that Spurs boss Pochettino will be a target for Madrid in the summer, with Zinedine Zidane’s future up in the air.

Los Blancos have badly underperformed this term, and Brazil believes that Pochettino will quit Spurs, if the Spanish giants come in for him.

“I think he goes, me,” Brazil said, when speaking about Madrid’s interest in Pochettino.

Tottenham, of course, will be desperate to keep hold of Pochettino, as he has been the mastermind behind their success in recent seasons.

Pochettino has transformed Tottenham during his time in charge, and established them as one of the best teams in the Premier League.

Tottenham have struggled to keep their stars away from Madrid in recent times though, with Luke Modric and Gareth Bale both moving to the Bernabeu to advance their careers.

Pochettino stated in midweek that he could not rule out ever managing Madrid, but he has always insisted that he is very happy at Tottenham as things stand.
