Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that striker Roberto Soldado will be remaining at White Hart Lane.
Soldado has been linked with a move away from the North London club after a disappointing first campaign, but despite not starting either of Spurs' first two Premier League fixtures, Pochettino has revealed that the former Valencia man is in his plans.
The 42-year-old told reporters: "Soldado is here, I never talk about any player rumours.
"He is in my plans. For the future? Yes. Yes. We've only had two games in the Premier League and one in the Europa League.
"I believe in all of the squad. It is important, you know I can only pick 11 players."
Soldado has been ruled out of Tottenham's Europa League clash with AEL Limassol tomorrow evening with a neck problem.
