Tottenham Will Appoint a Permanent Head Coach This Summer
Tottenham Hotspur has hired Igor Tudor temporarily to replace Thomas Frank. Instead of a long-term solution, the club has decided to give Tudor a short-term contract until the end of the season. This allows them to evaluate their options for a permanent head coach. Although Tudor’s current role doesn’t exclude him from being considered for the permanent position, it has been reported by journalist Fabrizio Romano that he will not be offered the full-time job, even if he performs well.
Eddie Howe Discusses His Future at Newcastle Amid Tottenham Links
Tottenham is actively looking for a new head coach as they start a new project. Recent reports indicate that Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe is on Tottenham’s shortlist. Senior management at Tottenham is reportedly impressed by Howe’s work.
This season, Eddie Howe has faced questions about his future for the first time in five years. Despite some wavering support from fans, he asserts that he is committed to Newcastle. “I’m still in it for the long haul,” Howe said in an interview. He emphasized the importance of team morale and performance, stating that the players are the priority.
Howe has at least three years remaining on his contract with Newcastle, and any club interested in him, including Tottenham, would need to pay a significant amount to release him. This cost would also include compensating his management team.
If Tottenham believes in Howe’s abilities, they should make a strong effort to secure him this summer. The club needs a clearer identity and direction, and Howe could provide that. It’s crucial that the next permanent manager aligns well with the club’s values.
