Pochettino says Tottenham already boast the best facilities of any club in the world, with a state-of-the-art Enfield Training Centre and new £1billion stadium, which was finally opened towards the end of this season.
Now, the manager’s aim is to transform Spurs into a world-class team on the pitch, and insists he is fully committed to the long-term project he started in 2014.
“Today Tottenham is, for me, the best club in the world when we talk about facilities,” he told talkSPORT.
“This training ground and the new stadium, which is the best in the world, there is no better club.

“And then it’s in London, there’s no better city, it’s England, it’s the Premier League – the toughest and most exciting league.
“We need to make that step and of course we realise we can continue in this process and we can put Tottenham with the best teams in the world.
“There’s still a lot of work to do, but of course I am so motivated to stay with Tottenham and provide Tottenham with what they deserve.”
Spurs have already made huge strides in that long-term aim this season by reaching their first ever European Cup final, where they meet Premier League rivals Liverpool, a match you can listen to LIVE on talkSPORT.
