Tottenham Hotspur are ready to try to tempt Simone Inzaghi to the club by offering the Inter Milan boss a ‘rich contract’ as his future at the San Siro appears to be in doubt.
Could Spurs turn to Simone Inzaghi to replace Ange Postecoglou?
With speculation continuing to run rife over Postecoglou‘s long-term future at Tottenham, reports from Italy have claimed that the Lilywhites are plotting an audacious move for last season’s Serie A-winning manager, Simone Inzaghi.
It was claimed last week that Spurs’ former managing director of football, Fabio Paratici, who still works as a consultant for the club, has urged Daniel Levy to appoint the Inter boss.
A couple of days ago, Fabrizio Romano revealed that amidst rumoured interest from Tottenham, the Nerazzurri are now prioritising tying down their head coach to a new contract.
Tottenham ready to tempt Simone Inzaghi to N17
According to a new update from InterLive, Postecoglou’s job in N17 is under a heavy threat, with Inzagi quickly emerging as one of the top candidates to take over at Spurs.
The report claims that Daniel Levy is keen to lure the 48-year-old to Tottenham and is prepared to offer a ‘rich contract’ in order to convince him to come to London.
Additionally, it is asserted that the Spurs chairman would also be willing to give Inzaghi full control of transfers at Hotspur Way to persuade him to make the move at the end of the season.
Inzaghi’s future at Inter Milan is in doubt
Inzaghi is now in his fourth season at Inter and has led the club to a Serie A title, two Coppa Italia trophies, and guided them to the Champions League final two years ago, where they lost to Man City.
However, Inter Live’s update suggests that the former Lazio manager is not assured to remain with the Italian giants beyond the end of the season.
The feeling at Inter is that Inzaghi can walk out in the summer if the club’s transfer strategies are not in line with his own vision.
