Mauricio Pochettino "very happy" at Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino insists that he is "very happy" at his current club, and will not "force a move" to Real Madrid.

Tottenham Hotspur boss Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that he is "very happy" at his current club, and will not "force a move" to Real Madrid this summer.

Pochettino signed a new five-year contract at White Hart Lane towards the end of last month, but his future has been thrown into doubt following Zinedine Zidane's exit from Real Madrid.

Los Blancos are believed to want the Argentine as their new head coach, but Pochettino has denied suggestions that he will push for a move to the Spanish capital.

"I'm very happy at Tottenham," Pochettino told reporters. "It would be disrespectful to Daniel [Levy] for me to force a move. I've just renewed with Tottenham and am happy.

"I live in the present, there is nothing more important than that. I enjoy what is happening and what has to be will be. Jorge Griffa (retired Argentine footballer) once told me that I must let football take me, that I do not want to change my destiny."

Pochettino also confirmed that there is no release clause in his current deal that allows him to enter into discussions with Real Madrid.
