Fabrizio Romano has revealed what Tottenham Hotspur have told Igor Tudor about his chances of being appointed as the permanent head coach of the club.
Tudor has taken charge of Spurs until the end of the season following Thomas Frank’s sacking.
The Croat coach’s contract with Tottenham only runs until the summer, with no option to extend his contract further, and his remit is simple: to guide the club to safety and to energise the squad.
It has now been revealed what the Lilywhites have told the incoming interim coach about the possibility of him remaining at the club beyond June.
Tottenham have told Igor Tudor they want a new manager in the summer
It was claimed by Alasdair Gold on Friday that the new interim head coach would be given a chance to stake his claim to be the permanent Tottenham manager.
However, according to Fabrizio Romano, that may not be the case, with Spurs being clear to Tudor what their plans are for the summer.
Romano revealed on his YouTube channel that Tottenham made it clear to the former Juventus boss that they want a new manager in the summer, ‘unless something completely crazy happens’ over the next few months.
Tottenham want Mauricio Pochettino back
In the same video, Romano confirmed that Tottenham had settled on Mauricio Pochettino and Roberto De Zerbi as their top two targets.
The same information has also been carried by GiveMeSport, who added that De Zerbi wants to wait until the summer, as other top Premier League jobs could open up.
Meanwhile, it has also emerged that Tottenham have made multiple contacts with Pochettino regarding a return since the start of the calendar year.
In fact, Spurs are said to be ‘working around the clock’ to bring Pochettino back this summer.
