Meanwhile Pochettino is having a massive whinge about not being in charge of transfers as it seems like Spurs will struggle to sign anyone else before the window closes. Add to that the fact that Eriksen and Alderweireld will leave on free transfers next summer.

You love to see it!
Daniel Levy still holding the purse strings there. Interesting that he’s prepared to lose Eriksen and Alderweireld for nothing. Probably thinking they were fairly cheap buys, will cost a fortune to replace this summer, and doesn’t want to get lumbered with two older players on massive new contracts (Ozil + Mikki). Can’t really blame him. Pochettino is clearly running out of patience though. He’ll replace Zidane at Real within a year imo.
