Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is spending transfer deadline day on a Spanish beach, leaving Daniel Levy to tie up the deals
A STRESSFUL transfer deadline day? Not for Mauricio Pochettino and Arsene Wenger it seems.
The Arsenal and Tottenham managers decided to spend the hectic day abroad, as Premier League clubs slug it out for new additions.
Pochettino was spotted relaxing in Formentera, the small Balearic island off Ibiza. Most of Spurs' transfer dealings are dealt with by Daniel Levy, allowing the Argentinian some time in the sun.
He was snapped strolling on the beach, before enjoying an idyllic boat ride, clearly in high spirits.
But news that Spurs are still poles apart with Newcastle United on a fee for Moussa Sissoko might temper his mood somewhat.
