Alan Brazil has said that Mauricio Pochettino wants to return to Tottenham Hotspur amid speculation linking him with Chelsea.
The former Tottenham forward has said on talkSPORT (6:24am, April 21, 2023) that he knows that Pochettino wants to go back to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The talkSPORT pundit has added that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is not interested in bringing the Argentine back to the club.
On Thursday, Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano reported on Twitter that Chelsea have made contact with Pochettino over becoming their manager at the end of the season.
The Times have reported that Pochettino is among the managers Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is looking at.
The Argentine, 51, made Spurs regulars in the Premier League top four and also guided the North London club to the final of the UEFA Champions League in 2019.
Alan Brazil on Daniel Levy and Mauricio Pochettino amid Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea links
Brazil said: “I think he is a lovely fella, and I mean, a real nice charming guy. He lives in Barcelona, he lives in Hertfordshire, he wants to go back to Tottenham, right, there is no doubt about it.
“Daniel has blanked him, has not spoken to him, I believe. If he was to get the Chelsea job, I would say every chance of doing well, and I mean that. He is a nice, nice guy.”
HITC Verdict: Bring back Pochettino
In our view, Tottenham Hotspur should at least try to bring Mauricio Pochettino back to the club.
If the 51-year-old wants to return to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, then we do not see why Daniel Levy should not bring him back.
Pochettino knows Spurs inside out and is well aware of how Levy works.
The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium faithful absolutely love Pochettino as well.
