Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that he would leave Spurs if the club's supporters no longer wanted him.

Speculation surrounding the future of Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has again gathered pace following back-to-back 3-0 defeats to Manchester City in the EFL Cup final and Premier League.

A number of the Arsenal fans have called on Wenger to leave his position, but the Frenchman is still in charge of the Gunners leading into this weekend's clash with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Pochettino insisted that he was not referring to Wenger when speaking on the situation, but the Argentine said that he would walk away from Tottenham if the supporters did not want him.

"If your own fans didn't want you, there is no point to carry on working because you are going to damage first of all your company, your club," Pochettino told reporters.

"They are important, the fans, and at some point, you need to go away because the club is always more important than any person. And if I am the point that creates problems between all levels of the club, I prefer to go away."

Tottenham will welcome Huddersfield Town in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon before hosting Juventus in the second leg of their last-16 Champions League affair next week.
