Danny Rose is in contention to return for Tottenham in Tuesday's Champions League game against Borussia Dortmund.
Rose was left out of the squad for the north London derby defeat to Arsenal on Saturday with Mauricio Pochettino later forced to deny a rift with the player.
The Spurs boss insisted Rose was left behind to train on Saturday purely to improve his fitness after nine months out through injury.
The full-back had previously been in the squad for all five of Tottenham's games since he made his comeback against Real Madrid last month.
Pochettino faced further questions about his relationship with Rose in his pre-match news conference in Germany and repeated that there was not a problem.
He said: "Yes, he is doing well, the training session on Saturday was tough for him. Today he is going to train with the group and then we will decide tomorrow if he plays or not.
"I cannot speak about rumours. If you ask me if Danny Rose is here and we have an issue, I say no. But to speak about rumours, no. No issue with him."
Tottenham have already qualified for the last 16 of the Champions League and a win on Tuesday would guarantee they progress as group winners.
Pochettino is confident his players will put the disappointment of the 2-0 defeat against Arsenal behind them.
He added: "We need to move on and we need to keep going. We are happy, I think the performance was good, now tomorrow is a good game.
"Trying to win here will be difficult because Dortmund are a very good team. They have very good players and we will try to be first, that is the objective and our challenge is to finish on top of the table in this tough, tough, group. It will be better if we can do that tomorrow."
