The likes of Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen look set to stay at Spurs and seek UCL glory there

Well, okay, except Kyle Walker. But then Mauricio Pochettino prefers Kieran Trippier now anyway and doesn’t seem to mind losing Walker to Manchester City, not when he can make £60m from the deal. Outside of that though? The suggestions of Harry Kane moving to Manchester United are a tabloid talk at most and judging by his recent interviews, Kane has no intention of leaving.

And the same can be said for Eric Dier, who was inexplicably linked with United a few weeks ago.

Elsewhere? Toby Alderweireld is still waiting for a new contract offer but says he expects to start the season at Tottenham regardless. Christian Eriksen has recently rubbished suggestions that he might be on his way to Barcelona. And somehow nobody’s been linked with Hugo Lloris despite Man City and Real Madrid looking for a new goalkeeper!

All of this points to one thing – Tottenham’s squad believe in Pochettino and they believe that he can turn Spurs into a Champions League powerhouse. And with a squad full of talented players pulling in the same direction, who would bet against it?

Tottenham as Champions League contenders? You better believe it.
