• Spurs manager fears club could lose Christian Eriksen• Pochettino wants longer window like other nations
Mauricio Pochettino has described the decision to close the domestic summer transfer window in early August as a “massive mistake” and claims he has even persuaded Tottenham’s hard-nosed chairman, Daniel Levy, of the same thing.
Pochettino could still lose Christian Eriksen to
Real Madrid as the Spanish transfer window does not shut until 2 September. Were that to happen Pochettino would be unable to replace one of Tottenham’s key players until January at the earliest.
Italy,
France and
Germany have the same deadline as Spain.
