According to Sport 1, the Argentinan manager is one of the names Bayern Munich are keen on in replacing Niko Kovac at the Bundesliga champions, along with the likes of Ajax head coach Erik ten Hag and former RB Leipzig boss Ralf Rangnick.
Despite being the man that has taken to Tottenham to regular Champions League football as well as a major European final, some Spurs supporters on social media were keen on Bayern poaching their manager due to Tottenham’s poor start to life this season that currently sees the north London side sit in 11th in the Premier League table.
Here’s what some Spurs fans had to say about the rumours linking Pochettino to Bayern Munich, with some fans on board with the current manager jumping ship to join the Bundesliga giants…
Take him please and thank you.

Some Spurs fans were wondering if Bayern had forgotten the result a few weeks ago when the German side demolished Tottenham at their own stadium 7-2…
Makes perfect sense Bayern beat us 7-2 so yeah sack the manager that got them that result and employ the one that was defeated! #Bayernsy
