Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly considering bringing a manager who left the Premier League last summer back to these shores as they continue to scour the market for a potential replacement for Ange Postecoglou.
The speculation over Postecoglou’s future has died down a bit over the last week, with Tottenham’s sole focus on lifting the Europa League.
However, a big decision will have to be made regarding the Australian this summer, and it turns out Tottenham are looking far and wide for Postecoglou’s replacement.
A former Premier League manager has now been put forward as a potential option to take over from the Australian at the end of the season.
Tottenham eyeing move for Roberto De Zerbi
This update comes from Gianluca Di Marzio, who says that Tottenham will have to beat Man United in the Europa League final for Postecoglou to keep his job.
Apart from the usual names we have heard over the last couple of months, Di Marzio suggests that Roberto De Zerbi is also on Spurs’ wishlist.
The Italian made a big name for himself at Brighton, and since swapping the South Coast of England for Marseille, his reputation has only continued to grow, with his side currently sitting in second place in Ligue 1.
MORE SPURS STORIES
It remains to be seen if the 45-year-old will be open to an offer for Spurs, especially just a year on from taking on a new project at Marseille.
Two clear favourites emerge for the Spurs job
Di Marzio also names Andoni Iraola as an option Tottenham are looking but he says that the number one name on the Lilywhites’ wishlist is Marco Silva.
The Portuguese coach is expected to emerge as Spurs’ main target if they do decide to part ways with Postecoglou after the Europa League final.
The journalist adds that Al-Hilal are also showing interest in Silva, but the 47-year-old is thought to be keen on remaining in the Premier League.
