Mauricio Pochettino, the former Tottenham Hotspur manager, has voiced his belief that the club can avoid relegation from the Premier League. Despite Tottenham's precarious position, Pochettino remains focused on leading the United States at the upcoming World Cup, which kicks off on June 11 across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
Tottenham is one point above the relegation zone after 31 games, without a league win since December. The club is currently searching for a permanent coach following the departure of interim manager Igor Tudor. Roberto De Zerbi is reportedly in advanced talks to become the next head coach.
Reflecting on his time at Tottenham, Pochettino said, 'That was one of the best experiences of my life.' He added, 'I am sure they're going to stay up, with a coach or without a coach, because of the players and the fans.' Pochettino emphasized his commitment to the U.S. national team, stating, 'We are very, very focused here on the World Cup. It's not a point to talk about the future at the moment.'
