Tottenham boss Postecoglou: Onana? I'm not bothered

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou does not have a strong opinion on Andre Onana's African Cup of Nations status.

The Manchester United goalkeeper is leaving as late as possible for AFCON this month.

He will play in the game between Spurs and Man United on January 14th in the Premier League and then fly out to play against Guinea for Cameroon 24 hours later.

"Yeah, I don't think it's fair or unfair. Each club can deal with it the way we want. There's other reasons for these kind of things, but no, certainly, what other clubs do doesn't affect me or the way I view it," Postecoglou told reporters.

"Ultimately we're bound by Fifa rules with these things. We want our players to represent their countries.

“They are big tournaments they are going to and hopefully they are all successful. More importantly hopefully they all come back healthy. I've spent zero time [worrying about the Onana situation], not bothered at all what other clubs do."
