Tottenham transfer news: Mauricio Pochettino issues worrying update over summer activity
TOTTENHAM boss Mauricio Pochettino admits there could be no new arrivals at the club this summer.
Pochettino is yet to complete any deals of his own while his Premier League rivals have all spent heavily once again during the transfer window.
Spurs have been linked with former star Gareth Bale, Jack Grealish of Aston Villa and Manchester United’s Anthony Martial over the summer.
But with the transfer window due to shut on August 9, it leaves Pochettino with limited time to strengthen his squad.
And speaking to the press on Spurs’ pre-season tour of the United States, the Argentinian coach conceded that they could be heading into the new campaign with no new additions.
"Last season I told you some numbers, but this season we don't know," Pochettino said.
"I don't know if we are going to sign [anyone] or not - we’re working on that.
“I cannot tell you if we're going to sign one, zero or two or three or four.
"I think I am working and focused on trying to deliver my job, our job. I try to prepare the team.
I don't know if we are going to sign [anyone] or not - we’re working on that
"That's the focus and we're concentrating on that."
Barcelona secured a 5-3 penalty shootout victory over Tottenham after the two sides played out a 2-2 draw in the International Champions Cup.
The north London side begin their Premier League campaign away to Newcastle on August 11.
