Pochettino responds to suggestions he will swap Tottenham for Real Madrid

Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has sensationally resigned. Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has been linked with Real Madrid job. However, Pochettino insists he will not force through a move to Real Madrid. And the Tottenham chief confirms there is no release clause nor verbal agreement that allows him to replace Zidane. The 46-year-old speaking to El Confidencial, added that he is “very comfortable” at Spurs. "At Tottenham I am very comfortable because they let me work and we are all growing together. Right now I want to focus on planning for next season and and stay a little apart from everyone that is talking. "There will be many rumours and many things will be said, but I have no news of Real Madrid. The departure of Zidane, I cannot comment on that, but what he achieved is undoubtedly something special; no one has won three Champions Leagues in a row recently.” The Spurs boss last week signed a new five-year deal to stay in North London.
