The Times (£) have run a piece from syndicated news source Reuters – which usually carries some weight – suggesting that Mauricio Pochettino isn’t closed to an approach by Manchester United.
Author David Klein believes that Levy would demand in the region of £40million to snap up Poch:
Daniel Levy, the club’s chairman, is ready to demand far more in compensation than the £34 million that will be the outstanding value of his contract next summer.

To date all we have heard from Spurs fans is a fair degree of baseless clucking about ‘building for the future’.
Pochettino’s level of ‘control’ at the club has also been cited, which triggered a bout of laughter which nearly hospitalised me.
No new signings on the horizon, key players left swinging in the breeze in respect of their soon to expire deals, and more debt than one might have ever thought imaginable, all add up to a position complete weakness at Spurs.
History doesn’t point in Levy’s favour either.
Manchester United haven’t failed in securing any Tottenham target they ever really wanted.
Teddy Sheringham, Michael Carrick and Dimitar Bervatov all went to Old Trafford.
But bales contract was worth less than 90m. What makes pochs contract different to a players? I think we may see the first manager transfer (I’ve completely made that up, I don’t know if it has been done before). Personally I don’t think he will go, but I’d he does I can’t see that it will just be a case of buying out the contract for man utd
Spot on!!
The contract is worth less than £40m.
And you hope his book he wrote with Ballague is baloney?
Good luck.
Go post on Dear Mr Peevely or Vital…
Micky Hazard is a mess. Mind you, at least he doesn’t threaten to duff up fans, like Graham Roberts…
Paying up MP contract is laughable
Otherwise why pay Ajax up to £45m for Sanchez??? Why not Give them £4m and buy out his deal??
Why don’t we pay up Rashfords contract? Then Sign him in a couple of weeks!!
MP would have to resign! If he does, Levy will place him on gardening leave withhold his registration and fleece Utd!!
He done it with Mitchel
Watford done it
Leicester held Mahrez back from city until they paid up
PL has changed we can’t bully the smaller clubs the way we used to and bigger clubs can no longer bully us!!
It won’t come down to a silly £40m
Levy will tell them MP is worth more than Kane!!
It’s simple.
I`ve listened to Micky Hazard and boycotted The Times for a lack of disrespect for our club and others should follow suit!
Think you’ll find Man Utd were winning titles and cups when players moved there, that’s not the case now the blue side have become the side to join if you want a chance of winning things ? As players want to do and as it stands now there’s more chance at spurs than at united maybe one or two players short at the moment they lack experience at the moment but are gaining that with every game
I don’t think there is a chance of Utd getting Poch for 40m, Levy will screw them blind. The contract supports this, Poch would have to kick and scream about the move, I just hope he is more honourable than that as he states in his book. He signed the contract after all
