After Tottenham Hotspur were knocked out of the Champions League by Juventus in the last-16 stage, questions were asked about the club’s ability to take that next step.

In the last two seasons, the North London outfit launched genuine bids for the Premier League title, but they fall short.

In the 2015-16 campaign, Mauricio Pochettino’s men finished third in the table, and last season, the club secured second place behind Chelsea.

Manchester City have blown everyone else out of the water with regards to the title race in the current term, which means that Spurs and their competitors have been left back fighting for top four.

Tottenham are in contention to win their first trophy in a decade, though, as they are in the semi-finals of the FA Cup and will have to get past Manchester United to reach the showdown at Wembley.

With the club due to move into their new stadium this summer, there seems to be a bright future ahead, but only if the right people are at the helm.

Pochettino has transformed the team since becoming manager in 2014, so it is imperative that the club keep hold of him.

According to The Telegraph, Spurs are confident of doing just that as they believe that the Argentine will put pen to paper on a new deal worth £8.5m a year, which will make him one of the highest-paid managers in the Premier League.

Fans have had their say on the story.
