Mauricio Pochettino has promised he will never outstay his welcome at Tottenham Hotspur and has also claimed he will walk away from football management if it ever sends him grey.

Tottenham manager Pochettino prepared for the Premier League clash against Huddersfield Town by celebrating his 46th birthday on Friday and is proud of the fact that he still has a full head of brown hair.

He also values the relationship he enjoys with the Spurs supporters and is adamant that he will never allow management to damage his quality of life, or stay somewhere he is not wanted.

“If your own fans didn’t want you, there is no point to carry on working because you are going to damage first of all your company, your club,” said Pochettino.

“They are important, the fans, and at some point, you need to go away because the club is always more important than any person. And if I am the point that creates problems between all levels of the club, I prefer to go away.”
