Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has brushed off speculation linking him to Real Madrid and insisted he is happy at White Hart Lane.
The Spanish giants are hunting for a new manager after Zinedine Zidane quit on Thursday following last weekend’s 3-1 Champions League final win over Liverpool.
Pochettino, in Spain for the launch of his book ‘A New World’, signed a new five-year deal at Tottenham last month but has been installed as the favourite to replace Zidane at the Bernabeu.
Pochettino told AS: “I take it naturally, it does not affect me at all, I am involved in a spectacular project where the motivation is tremendous. I renewed my contract recently for another five years, I am happy and I am happy that people at Tottenham are happy with me.
“I live in the present, that is the most important thing. I enjoy what is happening and what has to be will be.”
