Mauricio Pochettino showers praise on Tottenham midfielder Mousa Dembele

Mauricio Pochettino has showered heaps of praise on Belgian midfielder Mousa Dembele.

The 30-year-old Spurs midfielder is enjoying a superb campaign and has produced some eye-catching performances.

Pochettino rates him highly and hailed him as a genius earlier this season. The Argentine says that Dembele is an “unbelievable” talent, and has put him next to legendary players like Ronaldinho and Maradona.

“Look what I don’t want to compare with another. I can only talk about him because I know very well him after nearly four years,” said Pochettino about Dembele, as quoted by Football London.
