TalkSPORT sources have revealed that many of the reports doing the rounds on Tottenham and Igor Tudor are actually premature.
Since Tottenham’s 3-0 loss to Nottingham Forest, a number of reports have suggested that Spurs are seeking to make a managerial change during the international break.
Tudor and Tottenham are expected to part ways by mutual consent after the Croat has overseen four defeats and a draw in his five league games in charge.
In fact, it has been claimed that Spurs have already begun working on finding the right replacement for Tudor, as the club make a desperate attempt to preserve their Premier League status.
Tottenham have not made a final decision on Igor Tudor’s future
However, a new update has poured cold water on the reports of the former Juventus boss’ impending departure from Spurs.
It has been asserted that Tottenham are still holding talks over their next move, and no decision has been made on Tudor’s future.
Paul Hawksbee said on talkSPORT: “You probably saw on social media some pronouncements that there will be a parting of ways between Spurs and Igor Tudor. Our understanding here at talkSPORT is that that is still being discussed, and no decisions have been made.”
The presenter then went on to add that Adi Hutter, Robbie Keane, Roberto De Zerbi, and Chris Hughton could be potential contenders to take over from Tudor if Spurs do decide to part ways with the 47-year-old.
Would Roberto De Zerbi accept the Spurs job right now?
Some sources suggest that while De Zerbi is open to taking over at Tottenham in the summer if they stay up, he has no intention of taking a job before the end of the season.
However, The Times have claimed that Spurs have discussed offering the Italian coach a contract with a break clause in the event that the club are relegated.
However, the same report explained that Tottenham’s preferred plan was always to make a permanent managerial appointment at the end of the season, as more managers would be available in the summer.
