Mauricio Pochettino has broken his silence on Victor Wanyama who was in the brink of quitting in the summer.
The Kenyan midfielder had looked poised for a move away from Tottenham in the last window, with Club Brugge a potential destination.
Wanyama even had a medical ahead of a £13million transfer to the Belgian giants but the deal fell through.
He was also linked with a return to Celtic, the club at which he won two titles as well as the Scottish Cup between 2011 and 2013.
But a move back to Scotland never materialised and the 28-year-old looked to be left in limbo, along with Christian Eriksen who also looked set to leave.
However Spurs boss Pochettino has insisted he will be given a chance with the English Premier League side.
Wanyama made 24 appearances last season but has yet to feature in this campaign.
Pochettino, though, has claimed that could change.
He said: Victor Wanyama is in my plans. Christian is in my plans.
"Before I understood that they were in a difficult situation and, of course, we tried to help them, to help the club, to do their business.”
