Poyet, who recently returned first-team action following two major knee operations, says it is his dream to help Spurs qualify for Europe before he retires.

"It is 75% certain I will stop playing when this present contract ends next season," he said.

"I won't decide for sure until next season starts, but that is the way I feel now and before I finish I would like to help Spurs qualify for a European competition."

"Once you have played in the European competitions you want to do it again and again. It would be just great for Tottenham player's to have the chance and I hope to help us get there."
