Tottenham are set to step up their plans to sack Igor Tudor after their defeat against Nottingham Forest, with it being the 'perfect' opportunity to sack him, according to Football Insider.

There was growing optimism surrounding Spurs heading into their game against Forest at the weekend after they impressed against Liverpool in the Premier League, before once again showing improvement against Atletico Madrid.

Unfortunately for them, they reverted to their previous level of performance against Forest, suffering a humiliating 3-0 defeat on their own turf.

Tottenham sit just one point above the relegation zone, as they did heading into the weekend's game, due to West Ham also losing.

Nottingham Forest have, however, climbed above them, meaning it could turn into a two-horse race pretty soon.

Tottenham Make Igor Tudor Sack Plans

According to a report from Football Insider, Tottenham are accelerating plans to appoint a new manager after their latest defeat at home to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, severely denting their chances of survival.

Spurs see it as the 'perfect' opportunity to bring in a new manager due to the international break approaching, giving a new coach time to settle in and implement his ideas.

Tottenham had hoped that Tudor was the right man to turn things around in north London, but they could now be forced into finding a new manager earlier than they expected.

Under Tudor's tutelage, Spurs have won just once, beating Atletico Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League tie, but with the Spanish giants already having a comfortable lead from the first leg, it was an almost meaningless victory.

Tudor Not the Only One to Blame at Tottenham

Jamie O'Hara claimed during Tottenham's defeat at Nottingham Forest that Tudor is the worst appointment in their history, but he isn't the only one to blame.

The former Tottenham midfielder also demanded that Vinai Venkatesham and Johan Lange should be sacked immediately, alongside Tudor.

It's hard to disagree with O'Hara, as Tudor certainly isn't the one to blame for Spurs being in this position. The north London club were battling towards the relegation zone before his arrival, while they finished 17th in the Premier League last season as well.

The problems run deeper at Tottenham, but it's always the manager who takes most of the blame.

Who Should Tottenham Turn To?

GIVEMESPORT asked ChatGPT to discuss some potential appointments if Tottenham were to sack Tudor.

Tottenham are in serious danger of being relegated to the Championship after losing to Nottingham Forest, and it's time for the club to bite the bullet and sack Igor Tudor.

The result in itself was incredibly disappointing for Spurs on Sunday, but the manner in which they lost will be a huge concern for supporters.

The fanbase united to try and give their side the best chance of winning, welcoming the team coach in their thousands to try to motivate the players.

Their plans didn't work, however, with Tottenham succumbing to a humiliating 3-0 defeat in front of their own fans.

The pressure is now mounting on Tudor, as Tottenham still search for their first Premier League win under him, securing just one point since he joined the club.

Tottenham Need to Axe Igor Tudor

Tottenham's two performances before the game against Forest gave supporters a bit of hope, but when broken down, they meant very little.

There were certainly signs of improvement against Liverpool, but the Merseyside club are also struggling themselves. The second leg against Atletico was a bit of a free hit for Spurs, as the damage was already done in the first leg, while the La Liga giants only had to sit back and try to protect their lead.

In reality, the performance against Forest is a truer reflection of Tudor's tenure, and he needs to be sacked as soon as possible.

The result and display against Forest has surely rung alarm bells internally at Spurs, and there must be panic at the club with them being so close to the relegation zone at the moment.

Time to Give Robbie Keane What He Wants

It's now time for Spurs to give former striker Robbie Keane what he wants, or they risk falling into the relegation zone.

They need to make a decision before it's too late, and GIVEMESPORT sources have confirmed that Keane would be keen on joining the club.

Separate reports have suggested that he would want a long-term contract in order to sign on the dotted line, meaning not just a deal until the end of the season.

Tottenham now need to bite the bullet and bring him in. If the club are interested in him, just give him what he wants, before it's too late. The 45-year-old is a title-winning manager on two occasions, and is undoubtedly an upgrade on Tudor.

Tottenham manager Igor Tudor is under pressure after another defeat, and BBC reporter Nick Mashiter has named three possible interim candidates to replace him.

Tottenham were comfortably beaten at home to Nottingham Forest on Sunday, 3-0, and despite the best efforts of the fans before the game, welcoming the team coach and building a superb atmosphere, the supporters were left dejected at full-time.

Boos were heard around the stadium from those supporters who were remaining, with many leaving in the final 10 minutes, especially after Forest's third goal.

The pressure is now surely mounting on Tudor, with this side yet to win a game in the Premier League since he took over from Thomas Frank.

According to the BBC, three of the names mentioned as possible replacements for Tudor at Tottenham are Sean Dyche, Ryan Mason, and Harry Redknapp.

It's also claimed that ENIC won't have a say in the decision to sack Tudor, with chief executive Vinai Venkatesham and sporting director Johan Lange set to make the change if they feel it's necessary.

The aforementioned trio who could replace Tudor would likely be interim replacements, given some of the names Spurs have been linked with for the permanent role.

GIVEMESPORT sources have confirmed that both Mauricio Pochettino and Roberto De Zerbi are on Tottenham's shortlist for the summer, but a move for either manager is unlikely before the end of the season.

Tottenham Need to Make Decision

With there being an international break now, it's the ideal time for Tottenham to make a change. Spurs don't have a game until near the middle of April, so a new manager will have the opportunity to work with his players over the next few weeks.

With it being the ideal time, Tottenham should be looking at sacking Tudor and bringing in a replacement.

Tudor is failing to get a tune out of his players, barring a meaningless second leg performance against Atletico Madrid and a 1-1 draw with Liverpool, and Spurs are currently sleepwalking to relegation unless things change drastically.

Dyche, Mason, or Redknapp?

GIVEMESPORT asked ChatGPT who would be the best candidate for Spurs in their current situation, out of the three names previously mentioned.

Best Immediate Survival Option — Sean Dyche

Elite track record in relegation battles with clear low-block structure and defensive organisation.

Instantly improves defensive compactness, set-piece structure, and game-state management.

Pragmatic 4-4-2 / 4-5-1 reduces chaos — vital for high-variance relegation run-ins.

Maximises physical profiles (Romero, Van de Ven, Bentancur types).

Style unattractive but points-efficient.

Short-Term Continuity — Ryan Mason

Knows squad and club culture.

Less tactical authority; prior spells showed defensive instability.

Safer as caretaker than firefighter.

Emotional Lift, High Risk — Harry Redknapp

Man-manager and motivator.

Tactically outdated; modern pressing structures would expose Spurs.

Tottenham need to sack Igor Tudor on Sunday night after a humiliating 3-0 defeat at home to Nottingham Forest, denting their chances of survival in the Premier League.

Spurs are still searching for their first Premier League victory of 2026, and despite Tudor's side showing signs of improvement against Atletico Madrid and Liverpool, they reverted to type on Sunday.

The defeat hasn't impacted Spurs' position too much due to West Ham losing, meaning they remain one point above the relegation zone.

Forest have now climbed above them in the table, however, and it could quickly turn into a two-horse race if Tottenham aren't careful.

With seven Premier League games remaining, Tottenham need to find a way of turning things around quickly, and that might mean relieving Tudor of his duties as soon as possible.

Time for Tudor to Go

Tottenham need to relieve Tudor of his duties before it's too late.

The positive signs shown against Liverpool and Atletico mean very little if they follow it up with that performance against Forest, while the Champions League performance was almost meaningless, considering the damage was done in the first leg.

Tottenham have seven games to save their season, and it's clear that Tudor isn't getting a tune out of the squad when it matters.

The performances against Liverpool and Atletico were anomalies, and the game against Forest was a real opportunity for them to turn things around.

They weren't just beaten, they were humiliated, and it feels as though the writing is on the wall for Tudor, especially with potential replacements already being lined up over the last few weeks.

Tottenham Eyeing Harry Redknapp

According to reports, Tottenham are lining up a move to appoint their former manager, Harry Redknapp, if they decide to make a change in the dugout.

Redknapp, who plays 'beautiful football' according to his former player Luka Modric, has been out of the management game for a long time, but he would undoubtedly bring an old-school style that Spurs need to turn things around.

Tottenham need more fight in the way they play, and bringing in someone like Redknapp could be the recipe to get that out of the players.

Time is running out for Spurs, and they need to make a decision in the coming days, especially with an international break around the corner.

Former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara has demanded that three people be sacked in a fiery rant during their game against Nottingham Forest.

O'Hara took to social media after Nottingham Forest found their second goal through Morgan Gibbs-White, in what was a crucial game for both sides.

Forest and Spurs are battling to stay in the Premier League after both enduring difficult seasons, and Igor Tudor's side looked toothless once again, despite showing signs of improving against Atletico Madrid and Liverpool in their last two matches.

O'Hara has been heavily critical of Spurs in recent weeks, as expected, and he's certainly made his feelings clear on Tudor, who is still searching for his first win in charge of the north London club after taking over from Thomas Frank.

Jamie O'Hara Goes on Fiery Rant During Tottenham Game

Reacting on X during Tottenham's game against Nottingham Forest, shortly after Spurs conceded their second goal of the match, O'Hara demanded that three people be sacked immediately.

O'Hara named Vinai Venkatesham, Johan Lange, and Tudor, suggesting that the latter is the worst appointment in their history.

Spurs will have been reluctant to let go of Tudor for multiple reasons, with their performances against Atletico Madrid in the second leg of the Champions League and against Liverpool in the Premier League being one of them.

Whether their defeat against Nottingham Forest changes things, remains to be seen, as it was absolutely crucial that they secured three points, or at least one, with Vitor Pereira's side fighting to avoid the drop too.

Time for Tudor To Go

Tottenham need to do something. Losing to Nottingham Forest is completely unacceptable in this position, and Spurs are in serious danger of being relegated to the Championship.

They are yet to win in the Premier League in 2026, and although they showed signs of improvement under Tudor recently, that all disappeared against Forest on Sunday.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was half empty by the time the full-time whistle was blown, and Spurs need to make a decision as soon as possible to avoid being relegated.

It could be the perfect time for them to make a change, with the international break now approaching.

Tottenham Hotspur are considering Crystal Palace captain Dean Henderson as a potential replacement for Guglielmo Vicario, according to Daily Mail journalist Simon Jones.

The north London side have earmarked the former Manchester United goalkeeper as an experienced option in their ongoing search for a new shot-stopper.

Freiburg goalkeeper Noah Atubolu and Manchester City star James Trafford are also believed to be among the names on their radar.

Henderson, who arrived at Palace from Old Trafford in the summer of 2023, is under contract until 2028.

Tottenham Considering Dean Henderson

According to Jones, a new goalkeeper is on the agenda for Tottenham ahead of the summer, with Vicario now looking at a potential return to Italy.

Inter Milan are believed to be in pole position to land the 29-year-old, who has failed to convince this season, along with deputy Antonin Kinsky.

Henderson, meanwhile, has proved a consistent presence between the posts for Palace and has kept 10 clean sheets in 29 league appearances this season.

Only Arsenal’s David Raya, Manchester City’s Gianluigi Donnarumma and Everton’s Jordan Pickford have managed more shutouts in 2025/26 than Henderson, who was included in Thomas Tuchel’s 35-man England squad this week.

Vicario Set to Undergo Surgery

Tottenham could be without Vicario for their next run of Premier League games, as the Italy international is expected to undergo hernia surgery.

The 29-year-old has been dealing with the problem for several matches but remains in contention to start the crucial relegation six-pointer at home against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

Vicario is set to undergo surgery next week during the international break, and Spurs hope to have him fit again by April.

His absence could mean Kinsky’s return to the starting line-up, with the goalkeeper yet to feature since conceding three goals in 15 minutes during Spurs' Champions League last-16 tie at Atletico Madrid on 10 March.

Would Henderson Be an Upgrade on Vicario?

Amid Tottenham’s reported interest in Henderson, we asked ChatGPT whether the England goalkeeper would be an upgrade on Vicario next season:

Danny Rohl says Rangers are in talks with Tottenham Hotspur over extending Mikey Moore’s stay at Ibrox following the winger’s man-of-the-match display in their 4-1 victory over Aberdeen.

Moore was the star of the show as Rangers returned to winning ways in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, scoring their second goal with a terrific finish.

The 18-year-old received a standing ovation from the Ibrox crowd when he was eventually substituted by Rohl late on.

The German manager was asked about Moore’s future in his post-match press conference and had some positive indications to share.

Rangers Want to Keep Mikey Moore

Rohl was questioned about Rangers supporters wanting Moore to stay beyond this season and revealed the club are in ongoing conversations over the 18-year-old’s future at Ibrox:

“I think conversations are always there, but we know when Mikey performed like this, you can see Mikey enjoys playing for Rangers. The fans love him, I like him, he's a key player.

“I think there's a lot of good things where we could go again together, but we know he's still not our player, let's work in the next couple of weeks in all those directions.”

Moore scored his sixth goal of the Premiership campaign on Saturday, his third in the last seven games.

The ‘brilliant’ 18-year-old forward has been heavily trusted by Rohl in recent weeks, starting all of Rangers’ last seven league matches and helping them maintain their unbeaten run.

The Ibrox side last lost a league game in December, when they fell 2-1 to league leaders Hearts, who remain top of the table following Saturday’s action.

Three points off the top, Rangers face Dundee United at home after the international break on Saturday 4 April.

Rangers Keen on Elijah Just

Amid their ongoing battle for the Premiership title, Rangers are already planning for next season and have earmarked Motherwell playmaker Elijah Just as a potential target.

The Ibrox side are considering a summer pursuit of the New Zealand star following his impressive league campaign under manager Jens Berthen Askou.

Just has been one of the driving forces behind Motherwell’s strong season, scoring seven goals and providing seven assists in 28 league appearances.

Tottenham Hotspur are interested in signing Juventus striker Jonathan David this summer, according to reports.

The North London side are reportedly looking to bring in a new central forward after the season and have earmarked the Canada international as a potential target.

David only joined Juventus last summer but has largely struggled to establish himself as a regular starter for the Serie A giants this season, scoring just seven goals in 39 appearances across all competitions.

Tottenham previously looked at signing David following his impressive campaign with Lille last season, when he scored 25 goals in 49 games.

Tottenham Keen on Jonathan David

According to journalist Pete O’Rourke, Tottenham are among the clubs monitoring David ahead of the summer, when they could move to bring in a new striker.

Spurs are likely seeking a replacement for Randal Kolo Muani, who is set to return to Paris Saint-Germain once his loan finishes.

While Dominic Solanke, who became their record signing in the summer of 2024, remains their first-choice striker, the England international has struggled with injuries since joining.

The 28-year-old made only 27 league appearances in his first season in north London, and another 11 so far this term, after missing four months with an ankle setback.

Since returning in mid-January, Solanke has scored three times in nine Premier League appearances, with Spurs failing to win any of those games.

David, meanwhile, has also struggled this season, scoring just five goals in 28 Serie A appearances for Juventus.

The 'outstanding' Canada international added another two goals in the Champions League, where Juventus were eliminated in the first knockout round.

Tottenham Outline Igor Tudor Plan

Tottenham are set to part ways with manager Igor Tudor at the end of the season, with two managers already identified as potential replacements.

Speaking on GIVEMESPORT’s Market Madness podcast, journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed that Spurs have already decided on Tudor’s future and are targeting Roberto De Zerbi and Mauricio Pochettino as successors.

De Zerbi is available after leaving his role at Marseille earlier this year, while Pochettino is managing the United States at their home World Cup this summer.

The Argentine previously spent five years at Tottenham from 2014 to 2019, leading the club to the Champions League final in his final full season in charge.

Tottenham Hotspur's hunt for a new manager may have just taken a fresh twist after a brand new candidate emerged in the running.

Spurs have had a season to forget and currently sit just one point above the relegation zone ahead of their clash against Nottingham Forest on Sunday, while they were eliminated from the Champions League in midweek following a 7-5 aggregate defeat to Atletico Madrid.

But despite the uncertainty around what division they'll be playing in next season, the club must also plan for bringing in a new manager, and they should now be prioritising a move for a manager who will now be available once the season comes to an end.

Tottenham Must Move for Valverde

News emerged on Friday that Athletic Club de Bilbao boss Ernesto Valverde will be departing the club this summer in search of a new challenge, and that should be the news that sparks Spurs into life in their hunt for a new manager.

The Spaniard has had a storied career, winning five league titles across spells at Olympiacos and Barcelona, where he managed the likes of Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembele, Luis Suarez, Andres Iniesta, and Ivan Rakitic.

There he showed a sensational adaptability with his squads, as well as an attacking style of play that won plenty over, and it would make him the perfect fit for the Premier League. Pep Guardiola has previously labelled him 'spectacular', which shows how highly rated he is.

Another candidate, Andoni Iraola, has revealed that Valverde is his main reference when it comes to coaching, and considering there is interest from Spurs in the Bournemouth coach, that should tell them that Valverde must also be considered.

Forget De Zerbi: Valverde is the Man

Fabrizio Romano has previously reported that Roberto De Zerbi is considered the 'dream appointment' for Spurs, while Mauricio Pochettino is also highly thought of in north London.

But if Spurs are serious about getting back among the top clubs in the country and turning their situation around, they must make a move to bring Valverde into the club and turn their fortunes around.

With a potential free run to bring the 62-year-old to the Premier League this summer, it could be a masterstroke from Vinai Vinkatesham and Johan Lange that nobody would have seen coming, and results would undoubtedly see a huge upturn almost immediately, while the future of the club would also be in safe hands.

Sealing Premier League football must be the priority for everyone at the club, but getting an agreement in place early should that happen shouldn't be far behind.

Manchester United are eyeing a cut-price move to sign Tottenham Hotspur star Archie Gray if they are relegated from the Premier League, according to Sports Boom.

The Red Devils are pushing to secure a return to the Champions League next season, and currently sit third in the table, seven points ahead of sixth-placed Chelsea, who will face off against Everton on Saturday evening looking to close that gap. Tottenham, on the other hand, currently sit just one point above the relegation zone following a nightmare campaign, and face a huge relegation six-pointer against Nottingham Forest on Sunday to save their status as a top-flight club.

But should Spurs find themselves in the Championship next season, it has now emerged that Man Utd are eyeing a move to sign one impressive starlet from their rivals on the cheap.

Man Utd Eyeing Cut-Price Gray Deal

Gray, who has been described as 'phenomenal', has been one of the standout performers for the north London club this season, playing in a variety of positions and showing his quality despite being just 20 years old.

Man Utd have a long-standing interest in the youngster, but found a deal hard to do in 2024 as he was playing for their fierce rivals Leeds United, with a long family connection making matters even more difficult.

However, the club are now hopeful that should Tottenham suffer the unthinkable and be relegated, the England youth international could become more open to a move to Old Trafford, and they are now eyeing a deal worth around £55m to bring him in - much lower than the value Spurs would place on him if they were still in the Premier League.

However, according to the report, Gray has given his assurances to Spurs that he won't look to depart in the summer, even if the club are relegated, as he sees his long-term future with them.

Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are also understood to be showing an interest in Gray, meaning Man Utd won't be alone in their quest to bring him in should he become available.

Gray Would Be Perfect Man Utd Signing

Man Utd are keen to bring in new midfield options this summer, and while they will need experience with Casemiro departing at the end of his contract, they also need quality, and Gray has that in abundance.

Able to play across the back four as well as in central midfield, the talented Englishman would represent the type of signing that United made on a regular basis during their more successful period - top youngsters who can make an immediate impact and also grow into certified leaders in the first-team.

It won't be an easy deal to do, but Gray is the perfect profile for United to target, and it's certainly a deal they should look to do if there's any chance.
