Ben Davies could replace Igor Tudor as Tottenham manager
Ben Davies could replace Igor Tudor as Tottenham Hotspur manager, according to The Telegraph, in what could be one of the most dramatic stories of the season.

The £10 million defender is on a list which also includes the likes of Harry Redknapp, Glenn Hoddle, Tim Sherwood, Chris Hughton, Adi Hutter and Sean Dyche.
