They aren't going to sell Vertonghen for footballing reasons and there aren't any financial reasons either, not after he heavily hinted that he would be happy to sign a new contract.
The only reason why they might want him to leave now is if he has done or said something to alienate Pochettino. The manager has previous form for exiling players who defy him or otherwise cause trouble.
Doesn't sound much like the Jan we know, though.
