(Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino signed a new five-year contract on Thursday that will keep him at the Premier League club until 2023. The Argentine's success at Tottenham has made him one of the most coveted managers in world football and under his leadership Spurs have evolved into a high-pressing team that plays an energetic and attractive brand of football. "I am delighted that we have agreed a new, extended contract with Mauricio," Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy said in a statement on the club's website http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/club-agrees-new-contracts-with-mauricio-and-coaching-staff-240518. Pochettino said his decision to sign an extension at Spurs had followed extensive talks with Levy over the direction the club would take in future. The chairman operates a strict wage structure at Tottenham with the club's salary budget and transfer spending dwarfed by their top-six rivals.
