Tottenham's Mauricio Pochettino open to Paris Saint-Germain move

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino has admitted that he is interested in becoming Paris Saint-Germain's head coach "one day."

The Spurs manager, who has guided his side to an impressive second in the Premier League table, spent two years of his playing career at the Parc des Princes and still holds an affinity for the French champions.

"I try to watch all of their games, especially in the Champions League," Pochettino said, according to the Evening Standard.

"Sometimes I speak with [PSG assistant coach] Jean-Louis Gasset. [Will I] return to Paris one day? Why not?"

Pochettino, who has been linked with the Manchester United job recently, said that although the Ligue 1 competition may not be as fierce as the Premier League, it still remains the breeding ground for world class talent.

"I watch a lot of live matches in the French league," he said.

"The [French] championship is not very attractive because PSG are far from the other teams. But I watch it a lot because it is a major source of players.

"There is talent so I have to follow Ligue 1."
