Igor Tudor was recently appointed interim Tottenham manager and was expected to guide them to a strong finish to the season.
However, Tottenham have shown no improvement under Igor Tudor, and they are heading towards relegation. It appears that they are now prepared to make another change. According to The Daily Telegraph, they have held talks with Roberto De Zerbi, and it will be interesting to see if they can convince the Italian to manage the club.
He has proven himself in the Premier League with Brighton. There is no doubt that he is a quality manager, and he could prove to be an upgrade on Tudor.
It has been a disappointing season for Tottenham, and they are fighting for survival in the Premier League. A quality manager could help turn things around. Thomas Frank was backed significantly during the summer transfer window, but the Danish manager failed to get the best out of his players. He was eventually shown the door, but the interim appointment has not worked out for Tottenham either.
Can Spurs convince De Zerbi?
De Zerbi is unlikely to take a temporary role, and Tottenham might have to offer him a long-term contract to convince him to join the club. It will be interesting to see if Italian is willing to return to the Premier League. There is no doubt that he has the pedigree to succeed in English football. He could help Tottenham get their season back on track.
The former Premier League manager has been linked with a return to England in recent months, and he is thought to be on the radar of several clubs.
Meanwhile, the North London club has been linked with multiple managers in recent weeks. It remains to be seen whether they can bring in the right appointment. Their survival in the Premier League depends on it. There is no doubt that they have quality players at their disposal, but the managers have not been able to unlock their true potential. Tottenham will hope that a new manager can help them turn a corner.
