Pochettino isn't going to force an exit from Tottenham Hotspur but doesn't exactly rule out a move either

Mauricio Pochettino continues to get closer to Real Madrid without rocking the boat at Tottenham. In an interview for 'Radio Rivadavia' the Argentine coach once again talked up how important of a job it is to manage a club like Real Madrid. "As a coach, to arrive at Real Madrid is the pinnacle of your career. It's clear that Real Madrid could be the best team in the world," he added.

It appears as if Pochettino is refusing to force an exit from his current club. During the interview he showed how relaxed and assured he was. "I'm happy at Tottenham." Pochettino then added, "I let football carry me away. I don't suffer, so I'm prepared for when these situations happen."

Even still he wanted to send an indirect message to the president of Spurs, Daniel Levy, who is asking for €48.6m in compensation should Real Madrid make an official approach for Pochettino. "When opportunities present themselves, you need to take advantage of them."
