Maurizio Pochettino, the son of former manager Mauricio, has left Tottenham to join Watford

The 19-year-old winger has signed for the Hornets Under-23s squad and leaves Spurs without having made a senior appearance.

His exit ends the Premier League club’s connection with the Pochettino family after Mauricio was sacked last November, with his other son Sebastiano, also leaving his role as sports scientist.

Spurs said in a statement on Twitter: “We have reached agreement with @WatfordFC for the transfer of Maurizio Pochettino.

“Everyone at the club wishes Maurizio all the best for the future.”
