Tudor Upgrade: Tottenham Handed Boost in Pursuit of Manager Target, He Wants The Job

Tottenham showed plenty of fight as they secured their first point under Igor Tudor at the weekend, but it shouldn't be enough to keep him in his job.

Spurs remain just one point above the relegation zone in the Premier League, and they are in serious danger of being relegated to the Championship.

A defeat against Nottingham Forest at the weekend could see them drop into the bottom three if West Ham secure three points, and Tudor's side have only shown positive signs in one game during his short tenure.

The north London club have looked toothless under him since he was brought in to replace Thomas Frank, and Spurs still need to make the decision to sack him, despite the positive signs against Liverpool on Sunday evening.

Tottenham Receive Robbie Keane Boost

Ferencvaros director Judit Berkesi has recently acknowledged that his side regularly lose some of their key players due to finding other opportunities elsewhere, and he's also added that it's also the case with managers.

“This is actually the club’s merit in this respect, that we are already at a point where we can sell not only players well in certain cases, but also head coaches in the last two cases. It is certain that this possibility may also exist with Robbie in certain cases, despite the fact that he feels very good here, can really work in very good conditions, receives all the support that is possible, and the coaches can appreciate this as well.”

It's certainly not a 'hands off' approach from Berkesi, which possibly hints that it would be easily achievable for Spurs to come and get him, whether that be through a cheap release clause or something in his contract stating he's able to join another club.

GIVEMESPORT sources have confirmed that Keane is one of Tottenham's managerial targets as a potential replacement for Tudor, and he is interested in the job.

Keane a Tudor Upgrade for Tottenham

If Tottenham can bring Keane to the club, where he spent a large portion of his career as a player, then the north London outfit would certainly be getting an upgrade on Tudor.

Spurs have shown very little under Tudor, except for the game against Liverpool, whereas Keane has been a major success in his two recent managerial roles.

Keane knows what it takes to play for Spurs, and after winning two league titles already in his short managerial career, he's gained experience in building a winning mentality.

The appointment of Keane would likely get fans back onside, considering his affinity with the club, and Spurs need to pull the trigger and bring him in immediately.
