Mauricio Pochettino has been hectically busy as he prepares Tottenham for another Premier League title tilt, but he still found time to respond to one lifelong fan ahead of the biggest day of his life.

Russell Winborn, a season ticket holder for many years at White Hart Lane, will marry Gemma Peart this summer and best man Alex Buckland wanted to get them something not included on the gift list. He wrote to Pochettino with little hope of a reply.

However, the Argentine coach found the time to send a bespoke response to the newly betrothed couple and even lent them some managerial advice as well as his best wishes for the future.

Mauricio Pochettino sent the letter to married couple Russell Winborn and Gemma Peart

He wrote: 'I am writing to congratulate you on this special occasion.

'I'm sure it will a long and prosperous marriage and on behalf of everyone here at Tottenham Hotspur I should like to wish you both the very best for your future together.

'And remember in life, just like in football, a little teamwork can get you some great results!'

Pochettino applauds the travelling Tottenham fans after their 2-0 win over Newcastle

Tottenham began their Premier League campaign with a 2-0 win over Newcastle on Sunday and are among six sides considered in contention to win the title after their second-place finish last term.

Critics have pointed towards Tottenham's lack of transfer activity this summer with no new players arriving at the club yet, although Pochettino is pushing hard to sign Colombian defender Davison Sanchez from Ajax.

Spurs also have a longstanding interest in Everton and England midfielder Ross Barkley, who is free to leave Goodison Park after falling out of favour under Ronald Koeman.

Regardless of who they sign, it is set to be a very busy 15 days for Pochettino, yet it would not be surprise to see him take more time out of his schedule to give back to Tottenham's dedicated fan base.
