Igor Tudor’s future at Tottenham Hotspur remains at ‘serious risk’ ahead of Sunday’s visit to Liverpool, journalist Fabrizio Romano has revealed.
The north London side have not ruled out making another managerial change before the end of the season following Tudor’s disappointing start to life at the club.
The Croatian has overseen four defeats in his four games in charge, conceding 14 goals, and saw his side fall to a 5-2 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Tottenham are 16th in the Premier League ahead of Sunday’s trip to Anfield, one point above the bottom three.
Igor Tudor at ‘Serious Risk’ of Tottenham Sacking
Romano, speaking on his YouTube channel, revealed that Tottenham remain open to making another managerial change following Tudor’s difficult start:
“What's happening with Igor Tudor is that Tottenham, at the moment, while I'm recording this video, have confirmed that Igor Tudor will take the press conference on Friday ahead of the Liverpool game.
“But obviously, he remains at serious, serious risk of being sacked by Tottenham any moment. We will see when this could happen, also based on the Liverpool game.
“But obviously the situation at Tottenham is still very fluid, very open, in terms of manager for the short term.
“For the long term, they appointed Igor Tudor with a short-term contract because in the summer, it's already clear Tudor will go.”
Tudor was only hired by Spurs in February as interim manager until the end of the season, replacing Thomas Frank following his sacking.
The Croatian came under heavy scrutiny for his treatment of goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky on Tuesday, after the 22-year-old was substituted just 15 minutes into his Champions League debut.
Tudor was asked about his future by journalists after the defeat to Atletico, but only issued a ‘no comment’ response.
Sean Dyche Among Potential Spurs Targets
As GIVEMESPORT reported earlier this week, Tottenham appear to have several potential candidates to replace Tudor until the end of the season.
The list includes former interim boss Ryan Mason, ex-Spurs striker Robbie Keane, and former Nottingham Forest boss Sean Dyche.
While Mason and Dyche are both available, Keane is currently in charge of Hungarian side Ferencvaros, who are on track to lift another league title under the Irishman.
Spurs have also been recently tipped to appoint former Brighton and Newcastle boss Chris Hughton, who remains unemployed following his sacking as Ghana head coach in 2024.
According to GIVEMESPORT senior correspondent Ben Jacobs, Mauricio Pochettino is among the leading candidates to become Tottenham's next manager after the season.
The Argentine would be open to returning even if Spurs are playing Championship football in 2026/27, almost seven years after his sacking in 2019.
Pochettino is currently in charge of the United States, but he is expected to leave after the World Cup, when his contract expires.
