Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has rejected suggestions that he has a strained relationship with defender Jan Vertonghen.
Rumours over a potential rift intensified when the Belgium international revealed last week that he will not sign a new contract at White Hart Lane.
According to London 24, when asked if there are any issues with Vertonghen, Pochettino said: "No, no, no. Maybe because I pick players in different games but any problem with Jan, this is wrong.
"We have a lot of games ahead and need to see and analyse the performance and analyse the situation after the game, maybe tired, maybe some problem, and after you need to manage. We have a strong squad and this is important."
Despite deciding against signing fresh terms, Vertonghen has insisted that he is happy at the North London club.
