The US coach, Mauricio Pochettino (53 years old), said that a return to Tottenham's technical bench, after the dismissal of Ange Postecoglou (59 years old), is currently completely unrealistic.
The 53-year-old technician drove Spurs to the 2019 Champions League final, and within four seasons, the team constantly finished in the first four places of the Premier League. However, in the same year 2019, the Argentine was dismissed after a weak start in the 2019/2020 season.
Tottenham is currently without head coach after Postecoglou's dismissal. The Australian led the London to the title in the Europa League – their first trophy after 17 years, but not even this was enough to keep them, given the 17th place in the Premier League.
Mauricio Pochettino does not think of Tottenham
“Since my departure in 2019, every time the coach is changing to Tottenham, my name appears among the candidates. But if you analyze the rumors circulating, the candidates are probably at least a hundred.
What happens in Tottenham doesn't worry me. At this moment, it is not realistic to talk about a comeback of mine, “said Pochettino after the US national defeat with 1-2 in front of Turkey, in a friendly match, according to Sportal.bg.
In September last year, he signed a two -year contract as a coach of the American team and will have to lead to the 2026 World Championship, which the US will host with Canada and Mexico.
The next test for Americans is on Tuesday, against Switzerland, at Nashville, Tennessee.
