Mauricio Pochettino, the head coach of the U.S. national soccer team, has again said that Tottenham should have been awarded the 20162017 English Premier League title.
In an interview with Britain's Telegraph on the 10th, Pochettino brought up Chelsea's past punishment for violations of transfer regulations and argued that Tottenham did not compete on equal terms at the time. He stated that if the violation was true, the owner of the championship trophy should have changed.
Son Heungmin was playing for Tottenham at the time, and the team finished second with 86 points. Chelsea won the title with 93 points under manager Conte. Pochettino drew a line, saying he was not denying Chelsea's title itself, but said that if the rule violation had been confirmed, the title should have been given to another team.
He also expressed his affection for his ties with Tottenham. Having led Tottenham from 2014 to 2019 and ushered in the club's golden era, he said it is the only club he wants to help in any way possible in the future.
