Report: Daniel Levy is all over possible Pochettino replacement

Tottenham Hotspur have experienced their worst start to a Premier League campaign since 2008-09 after only managing to muster 14 points from their opening 12 matches.

After the high of making it to the Champions League final last season, the current Spurs squad look a shadow of their former selves.

With Christian Eriksen, Toby Alderweireld and Jan Vertonghen all out of contract at the end of the season, it looks as if there could be changes on the horizon.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has come in for criticism following the club’s awful run of form which has seen them fail to secure consecutive victories this campaign which has led to some players even defending their manager (Daily Mail).

Football FanCast are reporting that Tottenham have identified RB Leipzig manager Julian Nagelsmann as a potential replacement for Mauricio Pochettino.

Spurs have added Nagelsmann to their radar as a candidate to take over in North London should the Argentine decide to walk away from the club during his sixth season in charge.

Nagelsmann, 32, has built a healthy reputation in Germany after transforming the fortunes of Hoffenheim prior to taking over at Leipzig.

The report claims that Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is ‘all over’ Nagelsmann, but will not initiate contact unless the form of the Champions League finalists continues to plummet.
