Mauricio Pochettino stresses that he is unconcerned by Tottenham Hotspur's lack of activity in the transfer window as he trusts the youngsters to step up next season.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has insisted that he is "calm and quiet" about his side's lack of transfer activity after so far failing to make a single signing.

The Lilywhites, who finished second in the Premier League last season, have yet to get off the mark in the summer window in terms of incoming arrivals.

While the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United have splashed the cash in an attempt to close the gap, Spurs have stood still during the opening throes of the window.

Pochettino is unconcerned, however, claiming that he has complete faith in the younger members of his squad to step up if required next season.

"The last two seasons, we improved a lot," he told ESPN. "It is very clear, our philosophy is about trying to play exciting football with young players and trying to be different to the top sides. I think next season is a big, big challenge for us.

"For one, it's because we moved to Wembley, a different environment for us, a different pitch and stadium, all will be different for us. It is true that we must change because we were very comfortable playing at White Hart Lane.

"And then, I think because the big sides are investing a lot of money in trying to improve their squads, but for us we are so calm and so quiet because we have belief in our youth from our academy.

"We may lack a few players, but we are so calm because I think we have a very good team and the most important thing for us always is the team."

Tottenham have offloaded a few squad players this summer, meanwhile, including full-back Kyle Walker who joined Manchester City for an initial £45m fee.
