Jurgen Klinsmann has now emerged as an option to replace Igor Tudor as the manager of Tottenham Hotspur until the end of the season.
The former German striker was one of the greatest players to grace the White Hart Lane pitch, and now he could return to the dugout at Spurs.
TRUE or FALSE: Tottenham must avoid Jurgen Klinsmann at all costs!
Tudor is under big pressure at Spurs, having taken just one point from five Premier League matches since taking over from Thomas Frank.
The North London club are now assessing all their options ahead of making yet another managerial change, and Klinsmann has entered the frame.
Spurs consider Jurgen Klinsmann
Spurs are now considering the appointment of Jurgen Klinsmann as interim manager, according to Sami Mokbel.
Klinsmann is a big fan favourite at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium following his time spent as a player in North London.
The World Cup winner played 68 times for the Lilywhites, netting 38 goals and getting 15 assists during his spell in N17.

Now, he is one of the options to replace Tudor as the Tottenham boss until the end of the season, along with Ryan Mason.
Speaking about the situation, Mokbel told Football Daily: “I think Ryan Mason would jump at the chance to do it on a temporary basis. That’s just one.
“Someone mentioned Jurgen Klinsmann to me today as a potential option. So there are options out there who have links to Tottenham Hotspur who would 100% be willing to take the position.”
Klinsmann already has plenty of experience as a manager, having managed the German national team, Bayern Munich, the United States, Hertha BSC and the South Korean national team.
True or false: Tottenham re-appointing Mauricio Pochettino would be a bad idea…
The ex-Spurs star managed Son Heung-min during his last coaching stint in 2024; however, things did not quite go to plan.
It would certainly be a bold move to go for the German, and they would be heavily reliant on his reputation with the fans lifting the mood.
Tottenham have been discussing the appointment of Marco Silva, although that seems like a move which would have to wait until the summer.
