Pochettino, 47, has been in charge at White Hart Lane for over half a decade now and has previously been linked with European giants Manchester United and Real Madrid.
Speaking to Coma Te Va, the former Southampton boss says it is one of his ‘career goals’ to take over the reins at his country before he retires from management.

He said: “Directing the National Team comes into my dreams to fulfil and I have a great mental strength to fulfil my dreams in reality.”
The revelations come after Pochettino expressed his concerns over his ‘unsettled’ squad last month, while also saying his job title should be changed as he ‘knows nothing’ about the club’s transfer business.
Former Spurs midfielder Jamie O’Hara told talkSPORT last week that he believes Pochettino might not last the season in north London, amid growing discontent behind the scenes.
