Mauricio Pochettino has been linked with a Tottenham Hotspur return following the departure of Antonio Conte as manager.
Following a press conference outburst that saw Conte publicly question his players and his side's mentality, the Italian manager has parted ways with Spurs, putting an end to his 16-month spell at the club. Conte was out of contract at the end of the season, but it seemed the final straw for the 53-year-old was the 3-3 draw against Southampton, with the ex-Chelsea boss once again criticising the club in the public eye.
Cristian Stellini - assisted by Ryan Mason - will take charge for the rest of the season, but former Spurs manager Pochettino is a name strongly linked with the vacant position in north London. As well as Julian Nagelsmann who was recently sacked by Bayern Munich, Pochettino is a contender for the Spurs job, with the Argentine having been out of management since July last year following his departure from Pairs Saint-Germain.
