Mauricio Pochettino provides fresh update on PSG future amid Tottenham claims

Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that he will "100%" be at Paris Saint-Germain next season amid rumours he could be returning to Tottenham Hotspur.

The 50-year-old has been linked with a move back to Spurs after failing to deliver success in the Champions League with PSG this term. Les Parisiens were knocked out of the competition in the last-16 against Real Madrid despite leading 2-0 in the tie.

Kylian Mbappe had given PSG the lead going into the second-leg, before the Frenchman scored the opener at the Santiago Bernabau. However, a Karim Benzema hat-trick turned the game on its head to seal Los Blancos' passage into the quarter-final.

PSG have already secured the Ligue 1 title - Pochettino's first professional career league triumph. They currently sit 13 points ahead of second-place Marseille with four games to play.

Lionel Messi, Georginio Wijnaldum and Sergio Ramos were all signed last summer in an attempt to push on, but PSG were still unable to get past Carlo Ancelotti's side. That result has put Pochettino under extreme pressure, with rumours suggesting he could be sacked at the end of the season.

Antonio Conte has been linked with the job and reportedly asked Paris Saint-Germain to almost double his salary if he is to be prized away from Tottenham Hotspur. According to RMC Sport, Conte is currently on an estimated €17million a year at Tottenham after replacing Nuno Espirito Santo back in October.

However, the figure he is hoping to for is around €30m which would possibly make him one of the highest-paid managers in Europe alongside Diego Simeone. He also wants to join with his sporting director, Gianluca Petrachi and would like to see a number of their playing squad leave as part of a mass exodus.
