Tottenham famously went the entire 2018-19 season without signing a player – but can you name every player Mauricio Pochettino was allowed to add to his squad in his time as the club’s manager?

But, after some inspired work in the transfer market, the Argentinan manager quickly moulded Tottenham in his own image and gave the club arguably their best side of the modern era.

While Harry Kane was promoted from the club’s academy, and the likes of Hugo Lloris and Christen Eriksen were already at the club, most of the players that would form the Spurs first XI were signings made by Pochettino.
