It could happen next year, or in ten years. I don't want to promise anyone anything.

After this season, I'll be a Tottenham player again. I have a contract there until 2030."

Ljinders pays tribute to departing Silva

Man City assistant manager Pep Lijnders paid tribute to Bernardo Silva in confirming the midfielder will leave the club at the end of the season following their  on Saturday.

"You never replace a player with the same kind of player, because they don't exist. Bernardo Silva is unique," said Lijnders, who was filling in for Pep Guardiola due to the manager serving a touchline suspension.

The Dutchman added: "The way he controls games, the way he moves, the way he receives, the way he leads, the way he sees the solutions, all these things.

"You never search for a replacement of one type of player, you search for what is needed to grow with the team and somebody who can fit in the first XI.

"And then you hope with our academy, with the young players we already bought, that they can make that step as well in the midfield positions. But if you see our young boys in the academy, they have to make that step and to grow.

"But the most important is that the seniors will stay for a long time, that they stay, that the core is there and around that you can move.

"But it will be hard, because as I said, in the game, when he's not playing, you will see how he's missed. And that's one game. Imagine a season?

"But every good story comes to an end.

"I hope he enjoys the last months, it is only six weeks, and he has a good farewell and he deserves all that attention as well."

Trippier to leave Newcastle

Kieran Trippier will leave Newcastle at the end of the season when his contract expires. 

The 35-year-old has made 157 appearances for the club over five seasons since joining from Atletico Madrid. 

Trippier has been a key part of Newcastle's two Champions League campaigns and helped them win the Carabao Cup last year.

He said: "The time has come to leave this amazing club after four-and-a-half years. This is where I have felt most at home. It's emotional and I'm really going to miss it.

"I want to say a massive thank you to the supporters for all the support through the good and the bad times. You've always supported me, always stood by me.

"To my team-mates, it's going to be emotional. It's been an amazing journey with you guys. I'm going to miss you all but to win a trophy with you guys was really special - the best of my career.

"And to Eddie Howe, all the coaching staff and the team behind the scenes, a massive thank you. The gaffer had the trust - twice - to sign me, gave me the opportunity to represent and captain this great club and most importantly, we managed to win a trophy.

"I'm going to miss everyone at the club. Thank you."

Man City won't stand in Rodri's way, says Pep

Manchester City will not stand in the way of Rodri if he wants to join Real Madrid, says Pep Guardiola.

The City midfielder was quoted as saying that he would like to return to Spain at one point and suggested it would not be possible to turn down a move to the 15-time champions of Europe.

When Guardiola was asked about Chelseas decision not to consider Enzo Fernandez for selection after making similar comments about his own future, the City boss was adamant that he would not be taking such a stance.

What Chelsea has done is Chelsea. There is not one player who I think would turn down the chance to play in Madrid. I understand completely. He was born in Spain.

Always my wish is that Rodri would stay longer, as long as possible in this club, because he is an incredible player, a top player.

I know he has proved for many years how attached, how close he is to this club. His contribution at this club has been massive.

Now I have the feeling in the last one or two games that he is really, really back for a long, long period.

Guardiola has long made it clear that any player who does not want to play for City can leave. Asked if that applies to Rodri too, he said: Absolutely. The organisation of the club is above all of us. If one player is not happy, they have to leave. It will continue the same.

Always I think he is happy and I hope he is happy but if he is not, all he has to do is knock the door of the sporting director, accept an offer in an accordance with his incredible quality and after that it belongs to the clubs and himself.
