Mauricio Pochettino insists he never considered leaving PSG this summer as the Argentine dismisses 'rumours' he was set to return to Tottenham and hails 'calm' relationship with club chief Leonardo after signing new deal

PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino has set the record straight about rumours he was set to leave the French giants this summer - saying he never considered an exit and was 'clear' about his future.

The Argentine had been strongly linked with a return to Tottenham Hotspur after sacking his successor Jose Mourinho, with Pochettino struggling initially early into his career in Paris having failed to win Ligue 1.

PSG made it clear they were desperate to keep hold of their boss amid reports Spurs would have forced Pochettino to hand in his resignation or pay a huge sum to release him from his contract.
