Tottenham news round-up: Huge updates on Pochettino and Kane returns
Tottenham were knocked out of the Carabao Cup and FA Cup in the space of four days this week.
That means that Spurs’ wait for a trophy will not end this season with no European football and Ange Postecoglou’s side sitting 14th in the Premier League.
Speculation around the Australian’s future, player discontent and transfers has only increased after the poor results for the Lilywhites.
With the chaos continuing in North London, Tottenham News has rounded up the latest news from 11 February.

It states that if Saudi interest in the veteran becomes “concrete” then the club would consider selling the South Korean star despite recently exercising the option to extend his contract.

Mauricio Pochettino odds slashed to replace Postecoglou
Former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has emerged as the bookmakers’ favourite to replace Ange Postecoglou.
The 52-year-old is now just 7/2 with Bet Victor to return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium if the Australian manager is handed his marching orders.
The Argentine was priced at 20/1 earlier in January with Paddy Power as the former Celtic man seemed to be safe in his job but now the pressure has been cranked up after the double cup exit.
