Why must Pochettino pay to join Spurs?
Why must Pochettinopay tojoin Spurs?
Did you read the piece? Because there's a clause in his contract that says if he wants to leave before his contract is over, he has to personally pay up his contract, and he has a year left on his £2m-a-year contract
However, we'd presumably just pay him a signing-on fee to cover it if we wanted him, so it's pretty much a non-story, but hey. It keeps the Spurs management rumour mill spinning
I just read the headline and was playing with what it says; it says that Pochettino must pay £2m to replace Sherwood. That's a lot of money for Pochettino to pay, I'd bet.
Maybe Spurs would reimburse him for some of it.
If you want to tempt someone from another firm to come help you do well as you're in the shit, do you ask them to pay for the privilege?
If we want him, we'll pay it. If a firm said to me "We'd love you to come and manage us, but you need to pay a year's salary to do it, and we're not helping", I'd tell them where to go. And I ain't on £2m a year
Would be a seriously poor way for our club to kick things off with a new manager and not something I can see us doing at all. But hey, they've got a story out of the possibility
There will always be compensation for us to pay, unless we choose an unemployed manager. 2 million a year sounds like a lot although I'm not familar what that sort of contract.
I'm not convinced Pochettino is the right man for the job, and hope my top priority FDB doesn't have a similar clause as I believe he is contracted until 2017.
If we as a club pay £15m, £30m for players. Then IMHO, paying large sums of money to the most important position at the club is a no brainer.There will always be compensation for us to pay, unless we choose an unemployed manager. 2 million a year sounds like a lot although I'm not familar what that sort of contract.
