Vertonghen hints at Spurs stay after Pochettino chat

Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen has revealed he's spoken with new manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Vertonghen says he's keen to work with the Argentine.

"I have spoken to the new manager, I think he has been in touch with a lot of the players," said Vertonghen, who despite speculation may now stay at White Hart Lane.

"It was good to speak to him but he has left me to focus on the World Cup now.

"We have all been very impressed by Southampton in the last year or two, impressed with the style they play and with their manager, so I think we made a good move to get him to Tottenham."
