Many Tottenham Hotspur supporters are in awe of Manager Mauricio Pochettino and all that he’s accomplished at White Hart Lane. Perhaps none are as awestruck as Kieran Trippier’s baby son Jacob though. Take a look at this photo of Trippier, Jacob and Pochettino, which has gone viral for obvious reasons.

It was taken back in mid May, after the regular season finale, but it wasn’t until this weekend that Trippier really spoke publicly about it. While in Orlando to take on Paris Saint-Germain in an international friendly, Trippier revealed that his manager has sent him a message about the widespread popularity of the photo.
“A lot of people were tweeting me about that! Even the manager sent me that himself, having a little bit of banter,” the defender said.
Fresh off the 4-2 over PSG at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, the men of Pochettino next will take on AS Roma at Red Bull Arena in New York on the 25th. The third and final clash in the U.S.A. will be against Manchester City on the 29th in Nashville’s Nissan Stadium.
