Mauricio Pochettino has refuted reports pointing him to Manchester United and Real Madrid after the Tottenham Hotspur manager was seen at the same London restaurant as David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane.
His words, “I was with Jesus [his agent] and another person,” Pochettino told a prematch news conference on Friday. “We were three and that is all the history. Only we say hello because we met by coincidence.
“It was Jesus who told me look in the corner and I turned and it was these two people [Beckham and Zidane]. We finished at the same time, he came to say hello and we spent two minutes talking and we split and went home.”
Tottenham battle Leicester City in the Premier League tomorrow before they play Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League round-of-16 on Wednesday.
On Kane, Poch said, “He’s doing well, fantastic,” “You know him well, we need to stop everyday because he wants to be ahead of his recovery. He’s very optimistic and his determination to play as soon as possible is unbelievable.
“He’s doing well, he’s nearly ready to play but we need to be realistic too and in between all the areas to take the best decision.
“I think he’s so close to come back. Not for Sunday or Wednesday, but we will see after.”
