Tottenham Hotspur Football Club is currently in the market for a new permanent manager. While Cristian Stellini is holding the position temporarily, Spurs are looking for a long-term option. Fans have been eagerly waiting for any updates on who might fill the role, and football journalist Fabrizio Romano has provided the latest news.
Romano, who is renowned for his transfer updates and breaking news in the football world, spoke on the House of Champions YouTube channel to give his insight on Tottenham’s manager situation. He confirmed that Julian Nagelsmann is one of the names on their list of potential candidates, but there hasn’t been any proposal or official discussion with Nagelsmann yet.
“I’m sure that they weren’t that close to appointing Nagelsmann. I’m told it was not that advanced. Let’s see with Tottenham what’s going to happen because Nagelsmann was one of the names. I’m sure they have a long list with many candidates, they have five or six candidates to get the job,” Romano said.
Tottenham fans had hoped to have their pick of the best managers in Europe, but with Chelsea also searching for a new manager after parting ways with Graham Potter, the competition is heating up. Chelsea’s deep pockets could also mean they are willing to offer higher salaries to potential managers.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that Tottenham recently made an expensive mistake in appointing Antonio Conte, who left the club after just a few months in charge. Daniel Levy, Tottenham’s chairman, might be more cautious this time around.
Romano also confirmed that the club has no immediate plans to offer Stellini the job long-term, despite his current role as interim manager. Levy wants to make a decision within the next few weeks, but the process is expected to take some time as the club considers its options carefully.
In conclusion, Tottenham fans will have to wait a little longer to find out who their new manager will be. While Nagelsmann is on the list of potential candidates, no official proposal has been made yet. Tottenham will also have to contend with competition from Chelsea, who are also looking for a new manager. Nevertheless, with Daniel Levy at the helm, Tottenham fans can rest assured that the club will take its time to make the right decision.
