Daniel Levy has a big decision to make at Tottenham.
Having sacked Ange Postecoglou on Friday evening, the Tottenham chairman is now on the lookout for his fifth permanent manager in six years.
Postecoglou spent exactly two years in the job in N17, becoming only the third manager in Spurs history to win a European trophy, having guided the team to Europa League success over Manchester United in Bilbao.
There are plenty of names in the frame to replace Postecoglou in north London, with Thomas Frank and Marco Silva the top contenders for the job, according to the bookmakers.
But there is one name that will always be synonymous with a Tottenham managerial search - Mauricio Pochettino.
Pochettino spent five years with Spurs, from 2014 to 2019, and was one of the most successful managers in recent times, without winning a trophy.
The Argentinian was much loved in N17 and hugely popular with those behind the scenes at the club and the supporters.
He has openly admitted that he still has huge affection for the Lilywhites, and has said he has unfinished business at Spurs. Speaking in an interview earlier this year, Pochettino said: "I remember one interview I said I would like to come back to Tottenham. Still after six years or five years, I still feel in my heart that one day I would like to come back, we will see with timing.
"I would like one day to come back. Not because of my ego, it is because my feeling is I would like one day to win with Tottenham. We were so close and it was so painful."
Pochettino is as low as 10/1 and as high as 25/1 to replace Postecoglou at the helm. Given his current job with the USA men's national team, and a World Cup in 2026 taking place in the USA, Canada and Mexico, any move to bring Pochettino back is highly unlikely.
But that will not stop the links.
Pochettino wants to return, as long as the timing is right and it is clear the timing is not right currently. But links will not go away all the while Spurs need a new head coach.
Levy will not like admitting he has made a mistake and bringing Pochettino back will signal that he may have made a mistake in letting him go in the first place.
Pochettino would be a hugely popular appointment and Spurs were in talks to bring him back to the club in 2021, just two years after he was sacked, when Spurs eventually moved to bring Nuno Espirito Santo to the club.
There is no indication that Levy will make the phonecall to Pochettino to see if he wants to return this summer, but what is clear is that the Argentine will continue to be linked with a return to N17 every time the managerial position is vacant. And that will only end when he finally agrees to take the hotseat in the home dugout at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium once more.
