Pochettino Tottenham return rumours are heating up again—but the Argentine has spoken out to shut down speculation over a move to Brentford and cooled talk of a Spurs comeback, for now.
While Thomas Frank has officially taken charge in North London, Pochettino’s name refuses to disappear from fan wishlists and media headlines.
Speaking publicly for the first time since those links re-emerged, the former Spurs boss made his feelings—and the facts—crystal clear.
Pochettino: ‘I Never Spoke to Brentford’
Reports in June claimed Brentford approached Pochettino about their vacancy following Frank’s Tottenham switch.
But in an interview with FOX Sports, the ex-PSG boss shut that down:
“This club never contacted me. I never talked to them.” — Mauricio Pochettino
That clears the air over the West London club’s intentions—Pochettino was not in the frame.
What About a Return to Tottenham?
Pochettino didn’t rule it out—but also didn’t encourage any fresh hype.
When asked about the Tottenham rumours, he kept things grounded:
“My name is on every list since 2019! There are 100 coaches on their list. If something happened, you will see… but we cannot talk about this type of thing.”
The 52-year-old acknowledged the strong emotional bond he still holds with the club—but dismissed current links as premature speculation.
‘Tottenham Is Still in My Heart’
While the timing may not be right now, Pochettino hasn’t closed the door:
“In the bottom of my heart, I still feel the same. I would like one day to come back—not for my ego, but because I want to win with Tottenham.” — Mauricio Pochettino
He cited Spurs’ new stature, world-class stadium, and training ground as key reasons why he still dreams of lifting silverware with the club one day.
Analyst Verdict
Pochettino’s public dismissal of Brentford rumours shows he’s being selective about his next job. Despite media noise, there’s no active dialogue with Spurs. But emotionally, the door is wide open.
If Tottenham ever turn to him again—expect a quick and serious conversation.
Key Insights
- Pochettino denies any talks with Brentford
- He remains emotionally tied to Tottenham
- Has not been approached by Spurs since 2019
- Still hopes to return “one day”
- New stadium and expectations align with his vision
What’s Next?
With Thomas Frank now in place at Tottenham and no openings at major European clubs, Pochettino may continue to bide his time.
But a poor start at any elite club could quickly thrust his name back into the spotlight.
