Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has explained why he didn’t pick Kieran Trippier in the squad for the Premier League clash against Stoke City.
The 27-year-old was excluded from the squad in Spurs’s 2-1 win against Stoke City at bet365 stadium on Saturday, and Pochettino was asked to explain the reason behind his omission at the post match press conference.
Trippier joined from Burnley in the summer of 2015 for a fee believed to be in the region of £3.5 million, and has mainly emerged as a key player for Pochettino after Kyle Walker departed last summer to join Manchester City.
