Chelsea manager, Mauricio Pochettino has reportedly refused to rule out the possibility of making a return back to Tottenham Hotspur after he was acrimoniously sacked by the club in 2019.
Pochettino will return to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium as Chelsea boss ahead of a London derby against his former club on Monday night.
During his tenure at Spurs, the Argentine coach guided the team to four straight top-four places and the Champions League final. However, after leaving the side, the 51-year-old declared that he would like to return “before he dies” to try and win a trophy for the north London club.
According to The Independent, Pochettino emphasized his dedication to Chelsea before his “special” return on Monday night. But he also stated that he would not completely rule out a future return to the Tottenham sideline.
“Hopefully, I can stay here [at Chelsea] until I die!” Pochettino replied. “20 or 25 years, but you never know in football. It [Tottenham] is a club, for sure if I’m not working, maybe if they want me one day, why not?
