The Tottenham boss rarely comments on potential transfers.
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino
Tottenham Hotspur’s transfer rumours went into overdrive over the past week or so.
The club have been linked with the likes of Wilfried Zaha, Pau Lopez, Adrien Silva, Andriy Yarmolenko and Eilaquim Mangala recently whilst the long-protracted move for Georges-Kevin N’Koudou continues to rumble on.
It has been hard to keep track of the deals recently, but could the approach of manager Mauricio Pochettino be helping these stories thrive.

The Argentine has a strict no comment policy regarding transfers. The Spurs boss never talks about players he is or is not interested in during press conferences and interviews.
It leaves much guesswork necessary and the fact he never rules out the odd name also leaves much to mystery and intrigue.

Spurs fans would probably like to know just who they are targeting, but his consistent silence does somewhat fuel transfer silly season.
That being said it is also a respectful way of behaving and it ensures that the transfer business is all done behind closed doors and not in the public domain.
But the odd clarification would not go amiss.
