Tottenham News: Pochettino reveals he could have QUIT Tottenham if club had won Champions League

Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that he may well have quit Tottenham had they won the Champions League.

Before the semi-final second leg, which saw Spurs come from the dead against Ajax to seal a place in the final, the Argentine made the stunning statement that he would consider ending his five-year reign should his side lift the trophy.

And, speaking from Tottenham's pre-season tour in Singapore, Pochettino admitted it 'for sure' could have been a different scenario had they then defeated Liverpool, to whom they lost 2-0.

'Maybe if it was a different result after the final you can think, "OK, maybe this is a moment to step out of the club, leave the club and give them the possibility of a really new chapter with a new coaching staff",' he said.
