Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou says Financial Fair Play concerns from "2008" do not concern him.

It's claimed Jermain Defoe's move from Spurs to Portsmouth is being investigated.

"And? In 2008? I think I was maybe coaching Brisbane Roar mate, so fair to say I wasn't around then," he said. "And really, if you think that's coming across my desk… people are keeping a fair bit away from me at the moment because of what's really important and that is we've got a big game on Sunday, with the issues we've got around the team tomorrow, that's where my focus is."

He also said: "And I think I've answered it. It's not across my desk mate. For me to give you an answer would mean me sitting down with whoever is doing the investigation, whoever has all the information here, you know how many hours?

"I don't know if you've spent any hours doing that but I don't have that time in my day to be assessing those kinds of issues. With those kinds of things, any of those issues, there are those responsible, maybe I'm the spokesman, but I'm the spokesman for the football club in terms of the football. I would hate it absolutely if you got a lawyer out here and he started talking about what sort of formation we should play at the weekend.

"I'll keep my mouth shut with those things, not for any other reason, but I respect the space that other people are in and that I'm in. if you've got real questions about that, there are probably better people to ask than me."
