Manchester United and Chelsea have been linked with moves for Tottenham’s Rose in recent weeks.
In an interview with Talksport on Wednesday, Mauricio Pochettino failed to rule out selling Danny Rose should an offer come in for the Tottenham Hotspur left-back.
However, the Spurs head coach stressed his club are not one that ‘needs money’, having already recouped around £50 million from Manchester City for Kyle Walker.

Reports this week have linked Rose with moves to Manchester United (Daily Mirror) and Chelsea (Sun), but when asked if Tottenham would be able to hold on to him, Pochettino replied: “Like I said before… the decision is always up to us: sell (the) player or not.
“That is another rumour (like there) was before with Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Danny, Hugo (Lloris), Toby Alderweireld… many, many players.
“Then we only decide to sell Kyle to Manchester City, for different reasons, but I think that we are not a club that need(s) money… to sell. That is rumour and if an offer arrives we’ll see what happens.”
Despite Walker’s departure last month, Tottenham remain the only Premier League side not to add to their squad ahead of the new season, which begins for Spurs at Newcastle United on Sunday.
And selling Rose would leave the Londoners with little time to find a replacement, with Pochettino already seeking additions elsewhere.

Nevertheless, the impressive form of 20-year-old left-back Anthony Georgiu this pre-season would perhaps give Tottenham some comfort were Rose to move on.
