Mauricio Pochettino delivers PSG future update amid Tottenham and Antonio Conte links

Mauricio Pochettino has stated that he believes he will "100%" be the manager of PSG next season despite speculation about his future in Paris.

French media outlets have reported in recent days that the Argentine is set to lose his job despite taking the Parisian club to the Ligue 1 title this week. A couple of reports in France have also claimed that Antonio Conte has "offered himself" to PSG as a candidate to take over from Pochettino - a notion rejected by those around the Italian.

Pochettino has also been linked with a move back to Spurs if Conte were to leave the club in the summer. However, in his latest press conference on Thursday, the Argentine made it very clear what he believes the future holds when asked what the likelihood of him and Kylian Mbappe being at the club next season was.

"100% in both cases," he said. That is how I feel today. That is what I can say to you today. I can’t say anything else. That is how I feel right now. This is football and we never know what might happen. But I have to answer the question based on how I feel today. And that is what I have done."

He added: "There haven’t been any concrete talks, beyond what is normal in terms of our plans and what we have been doing so far. We have a natural relationship. We communicate depending on the circumstances at the time, but the relationship and communication are good.

"We keep working hard, not just bearing in mind the present, but also with the responsibility in this job which is to think about the future. So that is what we are doing."
