LONDON -- Mauricio Pochettino has credited Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy with turning the club into one of the most financially healthy in the world, and says they no longer need to worry about losing their best players.
In the past, Spurs have been forced to sell stars to bigger clubs -- notably Luka Modric and Gareth Bale, who both joined Real Madrid -- but Pochettino's talented squad have nearly all signed new long-term contracts this season.
However, Spurs' excellent form recently has prompted speculation about the futures of Kyle Walker, Danny Rose and Dele Alli, and with the club building a new £750 million stadium there is a good reason why Levy may want to raise funds.
