Blow for Spurs fans

This latest development on the future of the former Paris Saint-Germain boss will come as a blow for Tottenham fans.

We know that Spurs fans have been chanting Pochettino’s name at matches.

A lot of Tottenham supporters would love for the Argentine to return to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

However, as Football.London journalist Alasdair Gold has said on his YouTube channel, Tottenham “have shown zero interest in re-appointing Mauricio Pochettino”.

Spurs have not actually made an approach for Pochettino, according to Gold, and this will come as a disappointment for Spurs fans, especially as there has been speculation (The Sun in March) that the Argentine has been open to a return to Spurs.
