Pochettino open to Tottenham departures

Tottenham Hotspur coach Mauricio Pochettino has said that he is open to possible departures from the club before the transfer window in Europe shuts by the end of August.

He made this known at a press conference ahead of his side's Premier League game against Fulham on Saturday.

According to Football.London, he said: "They are players I am going to work with until January but if they change their mind and they are working with their people to try and get an opportunity, I am open."

He also added that the final decision about who will leave will be made by the club's chairman Daniel Levy.

Tottenham failed to sign any player before the close of the English transfer window last week. As a result of this, a move out of the club is not expected this summer.

Spurs' lack of signings has not killed interests in their players with Real Madrid eyeing Christian Eriksen and Bayern Munich linked with a move for Toby Alderweireld.
