Tottenham fans are bashing the latest reports on Mauricio Pochettino, after bookmakers made the Spurs boss favourite to take over at Real Madrid.

Earlier this week, Tottenham fans were furious about a report suggesting Mauricio Pochettino had a “Real Madrid clause” in his new contract, meaning the Argentine could ditch North London if Madrid came calling.

The rumours of a shock exit are only intensifying this week, after Zinedine Zidane stunned everyone by announcing his exit from Real Madrid on Thursday.

The French manager has won three Champions League titles in a row, but the Spanish giants will now have to hunt for a new manager this summer.

Most bookmakers have got Pochettino as the slight favourite for the job, just ahead of ex-Arsenal man Arsene Wenger.

Mundo Deportivo have now backed the claims about the Tottenham man’s release clause, claiming he could replace Zidane this summer despite signing a deal in North London until 2023.

Of course, reports from Spain regarding the clause should be taken with a rather large bowl of salt, and Tottenham fans are having their say as well.
