Tottenham Hotspur will not sign free agent Giuseppe Rossi, manager Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed.

The Italian has been training with Manchester United in recent weeks, and there has been talk Spurs could bring him in to replace the injured Harry Kane.

But Pochettino has put those rumours to bed.

He said: "There are many names that appear in every transfer window.

"I think he is another name to add on the list but it is only a rumour. We have not considered him.

"It's a rumour like another but if you ask me, I think no, it's not a possibility."
