Pochettino bit the dust after a poor run of results, with Jose Mourinho coming in the following day as his replacement.

Speaking of his decision, Levy said: “You have to understand I had built up a personal relationship with Mauricio over five-and-a-half years. It is not something I ever wanted. Personally, it was incredibly difficult, I told him that and he understood.

“He’s been in football (a long time), he understands. It’s not personal and I’m sure he’ll come back stronger and get an opportunity to manage another great club. Maybe one day he’ll come back to us.”
