Mauricio Roberto Pochettino Trossero ((:mauˈɾisjo potʃeˈtino tɾoˈseɾo), ; born 2 March 1972) is a retired Argentine footballer who played as a central defender, and is the current head coach of Tottenham Hotspur. He spent 17 years as a professional player, 10 of which were in La Liga with Espanyol where he scored 13 goals in 275 games. He also played in France for two clubs, Paris Saint-Germain and Bordeaux, having started his career with Newell's Old Boys. An Argentine international for four years between 1999 and 2002, Pochettino represented the country at the 2002 World Cup and the 1999 Copa América. ==Club career== Born in Murphy, Santa Fe, Pochettino started his professional career with Newell's Old Boys, moving to RCD Espanyol in Spain for the 1994–95 season as the Catalans had just returned to La Liga. He was an undisputed starter in his six and-a-half years stay, helping the club to the 2000 conquest of the Copa del Rey. In January 2001, Pochettino signed for Paris Saint-Germain. He was also a regular starter during his stay, and moved for the 2003–04 campaign to fellow Ligue 1 outfit FC Girondins de Bordeaux. However, he returned to Espanyol (initially on loan)〔(Pochettino bounces back again ); UEFA.com, 22 June 2004〕 midway through his first year〔(''Olímpico'' return for Pochettino ); UEFA.com, 30 December 2003〕 for two and a half more seasons, still being regularly used except for his last one, and wrapping up his career at the age of 34 with another domestic cup.〔(Espanyol's Pochettino calls it quits ); UEFA.com, 8 June 2006〕 In his two combined spells at Espanyol, he appeared in nearly 300 official games for the club.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mauricio Pochettino」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
