Liverpool are buying success - Mauricio Pochettino

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has told ESPN that he believes Liverpool are buying success.


The Spurs boss pointed to their £75 million deals for Virgil van Dijk and £66 million move for Alisson in recent transfer windows.

He argues that Tottenham instead are focused on producing their own stars.

Pochettino said to ESPN: "In the past couple of years, Liverpool have invested a lot of money.

"Due to a number of circumstances, we've tried to produce young players with great futures such as Harry Kane, Dele Alli, Eric Dier,  Trippier or Harry Winks.

"We are creating players. But in this case, Liverpool need a defender, they get van Dijk. They need a goalkeeper, who's the best? Alisson. It's the same as Manchester City."
