Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino is more likely to stay in England than take the vacant job at Bayern Munich, it has been claimed.

The Argentine has been linked with Bayern after the dismissal of Niko Kovac on Sunday.

However, Mundo Deportivo's Francesc Aguilar says such a prospect is unlikely - particularly given Pochettino's lack of German.

He explained: "In the lists of possible replacements for Niko Kovac also appears in some media Mauricio Pochettino, but my information places the current coach of Tottenham and formerly of Espanyol closer to Manchester United or Real Madrid than Bayern in the future.

"The language is an issue."
