Spurs Web

AC Milan are looking to Tottenham Hotspur for some advice that could influence the long-term future of the Serie A giants.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium remains one of football’s modern masterpieces and is the home to Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.

The revenue generated from the club is immense, as it not only hosts football matches but is a multi-purpose stadium capable of staging NFL games, boxing matches, and concerts.

The Spurs home stadium generates millions of pounds in revenue, which is fantastic for the club in both a footballing and business perspective – if Tottenham start investing more into the team, of course.

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium inspiring AC Milan plans

Calciomercato are now reporting that the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is catching the interest of AC Milan in Italy.

It is understood that AC Milan has been in contact with Spurs for years, with the Italian side looking to replicate the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in Milan.

Milan is currently working on building the new San Siro, and it is believed that Spurs’ stadium is very much the reference point for what will be the new ground.

Key features AC Milan want to replicate from Spurs

The report also reveals what Milan is looking to copy from Tottenham’s home ground.

The transparent tunnel that Spurs, Manchester City and others have pushed forward appeals immensely to the Italian side, alongside selling hospitality packages and the ‘Tunnel Club’ schemes.

Milan believes that including these things is a step towards “making football ever closer to the fans”.

There are other elements too. The Italian side wants 71,500 seats and will adopt a more oval shape – again, another hint towards Tottenham. There will also be further features, such as a roof and internal shopping options.

Tim Sherwood has now warned Tottenham Hotspur against hiring one Premier League manager following Thomas Frank’s dismissal.

Tottenham Hotspur finally pulled the plug on Thomas Frank this morning after the Dane struggled to turn things around at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Frank posted the worst points-per-game ratio of any Spurs manager appointed for more than five games, with the Dane averaging 1.12 points in his 26 games as manager.

Enough was enough for the Tottenham higher-ups, who decided to sack Frank following Spurs’ latest 2-1 defeat to Newcastle United in the Premier League.

Tottenham managerial search: Tim Sherwood warns against Oliver Glasner

Attention now turns to the way forward for Tottenham, with the club having the option to appoint a permanent option now or to go the interim route ahead of the summer window.

When it comes to interim options, there are a handful for Spurs to pick from as they aim to steady the ship.

The same can also be said about long-term options, as several managers are out of jobs and could be willing to join Tottenham.

Tim Sherwood has now ruled out a potential candidate who is still in a job. Speaking about Oliver Glasner’s conduct and suitability for the role, Tim Sherwood told Casinostugan: “Oliver Glasner has done a fantastic job at Crystal Palace but I do not like the way he has acted.

“I think he has thrown his toys out of the pram and I thought it was disrespectful to the club the way he came out and threw them under the bus.

“The club have been good to him. He knew when he took the job in the first place that Palace are a selling club. Their best players outgrow the club. That is exactly what happened, and this is not the first time Glasner has done this. He did the same at Frankfurt. Now he has done it again at Palace so I have no time for him.

“He has done a wonderful job. He has given the fans the best moment they have ever had in their recent history. He also gave them one of the worst moments with the way they went out against Macclesfield, do not forget.

“It all levels itself out but Palace have put him on the map in the Premier League and now I think a lot of clubs who might have taken a look at him before his outburst will think twice. They might think hold on, that might happen to us.”

Spurs face defining call in next managerial appointment

Picking the next manager is a big task for Tottenham, given how poorly their last couple of appointments have gone. This is not a decision they will want to rush into, and it is said Spurs could take until Monday to make an appointment.

Spurs are currently in a relegation scrap, with five points the difference between them and West Ham United, leaving the next manager with serious work to do as they aim to avoid relegation.

There is still some time to go before Tottenham next take to the pitch, and that should allow the board to assess their options before deciding on their next move.

Tottenham Hotspur’s search for their next manager has already hit an early stumbling block, with one leading candidate distancing himself from the vacancy.

Tottenham Hotspur are now on the lookout for a new manager following the sacking of Thomas Frank, who spent just eight months in the dugout.

Spurs are sure to have a plethora of options as they weigh up whether to appoint a manager on an interim basis or sign one permanently.

The likes of Oliver Glasner, Marco Silva and Andoni Iraola remain managers with Premier League experience that Tottenham might want to consider after having them on their shortlist last year when they sought a replacement for Ange Postecoglou.

Tottenham managerial target Andoni Iraola stance revealed

GIVEMESPORT have now revealed that Andoni Iraola would rather stay at Bournemouth instead of jumping ship to Tottenham.

It is believed that the Cherries manager is highly sought-after and one of the frontrunners to be approached by Spurs following Frank’s dismissal.

Iraola’s contract is set to expire in the summer window, meaning he is expected to be a free agent, allowing Spurs to sign him without paying any extra fees to the South Coast club.

However, it is explained that the Bournemouth manager is not keen on a move to Tottenham because of the systematic unravelling of the season under departed boss Thomas Frank.

Tottenham search continues after Iraola setback

While Iraola is not keen on a move to Tottenham, it is believed that he is eyeing up a move to a top club, with an opportunity to return home and manage Athletic Club in Bilbao, where he spent 12 years as a player, amassing more than 400 appearances.

Robbie Keane reacted to his own Tottenham links with just four words, while Oliver Glasner was far from impressed at being asked about the Spurs job.

Marco Silva is also mentioned in GIVEMESPORT’s report, but it was not revealed whether he has sights on a move to Tottenham.

However, just like Iraola, the Portuguese manager is set to be a free agent in the summer as his Fulham contract runs down, with no news of him looking to sign an extension.

Tottenham Hotspur have now been handed a worrying Dejan Kulusevski injury timeline update, with the midfielder dealing with another setback.

The injury situation at Tottenham Hotspur has only gotten worse, with players still dropping like flies this season.

Last campaign, Ange Postecoglou lost as many as 12 players to injury, and the story remains the same with Frank, who is now missing 11 first-team players.

Since January 2026, Spurs have lost over seven senior players to injuries, severely depleting the squad.

However, some injuries date back to last year, with Dejan Kulusevski’s knee problem one such case, happening in May 2025.

The Swede underwent injury to his patella later in the same month but has yet to kick a ball in the last nine months.

Tottenham injury concern as Dejan Kulusevski faces longer lay-off

We reported earlier that Dejan Kulusevski could make a possible return in March, but that looks unlikely, with Thomas Frank revealing at the start of the week that Kulusevski was set to see a specialist in the coming days.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The 25-year-old’s situation is becoming increasingly worrying, and now Sportbladet have provided the latest on the midfielder’s situation.

According to the outlet, it is understood that Kulusevski is unlikely to be available in March.

That is because it is stated that the Tottenham attacker is ‘nowhere near stepping out’ on the pitch, as he is still working on his rehabilitation.

There is a genuine fear that the Swede will be out for longer than expected, and that could also see him miss Sweden’s clash against Ukraine on the 26th of next month.

However, there might be little hope he makes it, but that in itself has been described as miraculous, and even if that were to happen, the Tottenham star will not be able to start for Sweden.

Spurs must remain cautious with Kulusevski’s recovery

Tottenham will want to be careful with the Swede and would not want to risk rushing him back after the serious injury he picked up.

At the rate of his recovery, there is every chance that Kulusevski might return to action at the very tail end of the current season.

Frank’s Champions League squad decision was also a further hint as to where things stand with the Swede, as he was again left out of Tottenham’s Champions League squad, which pretty much suggests that he is far away from recovering.

One stat on Thomas Frank’s tenure at Tottenham shows that the club could have, and arguably should have, sacked him a long time ago.

Over the course of his relatively short stay at Spurs, the former Brentford boss has managed to accumulate several undesirable records.

As Spurs Web previously revealed, Frank has the worst points per game record of any permanent manager of any ‘big six’ side in Premier League history.

However, there is one even more appalling stat, which is probably the bigger reason for his eventual sacking.

Tottenham’s home record this season is beyond disastrous

One can argue that the ultimate reason for Frank’s failure at Spurs was his inability to deliver performances or wins at home.

Tottenham are in the relegation zone this season if only results at home are considered, with only Wolves having fewer points at their stadium this term than their Lilywhites.

Across Frank’s 13 home matches in the league, Spurs won just two, while drawing four and losing seven, accumulating just 10 points.

They managed just 16 goals out of those 13 matches, which perhaps shows just why the crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has been so disgruntled.

Spurs entertained at home last season despite their struggles

Tottenham’s struggles at home did not just start with Frank, with the Lilywhites also being poor in front of their fans last season under Ange Postecoglou.

However, the reason the atmosphere was not as toxic at the time was that the team was still playing attacking football and giving supporters something to get behind.

Under Postecoglou last season, Spurs only had the 15th-best record at home, but they still scored 35 goals in their 19 home matches.

In sharp contrast, there have been very few matches this season when Tottenham have actually looked like scoring from open play at N17, and the numbers bear that out.

New details have emerged over whether Robbie Keane will consider filling the vacant managerial position at Tottenham Hotspur – and it leaves the club with a big decision to make.

Tottenham Hotspur are currently without a manager for the second time in eight months, after Thomas Frank was sacked due to his team’s struggles.

The good news is that Spurs have time to find a replacement ahead of their next fixture, which is not for another 10 days.

However, Tottenham want a new manager appointed by Monday, which means a lot of attention must be given to the club’s manager search in order to achieve this objective.

Robbie Keane will only become Tottenham manager on one condition

Robbie Keane is one of the bosses rumoured to be on his old team’s radar, but the ex-Spurs striker has refused to speculate on whether he would return to North London.

Despite this, The Telegraph have revealed that Keane is thought to be interested in becoming the new Tottenham manager and his name has been discussed by the club.

MORE SPURS STORIES

Nevertheless, this is only on the condition that the Irishman is given the role on a permanent basis, rather than as an interim. He has no interest in joining for a few months just to keep the seat warm for a summer hire.

Spurs might be forced to consider the temporary appointment of John Heitinga if Keane does not change his mind. However, insiders claim the Tottenham hierarchy would prefer to bring in an external candidate if possible.

Keane would be a risky appointment for Spurs

Dubbed as ‘Tottenham’s Carrick candidate’, Keane could actually be who Spurs need to rise back up the Premier League table.

On the other hand, the 45-year-old has no experience managing a big club and could end up in a similar situation to Thomas Frank, whose limitations were clear for all to see.

Ultimately, it seems unlikely that Tottenham would be willing to hire Keane on a permanent basis. Therefore, it will not be surprising if he remains in charge of the Hungarian champions for the rest of the season.

An Italian journalist has talked up Tottenham Hotspur’s chances of landing a centre-forward who has scored 64 goals in 162 outings for his current club.

After a disappointing January transfer window, the focus of Johan Lange and Tottenham’s recruitment team shifts to the summer.

It has already been reported that Spurs are plotting an ambitious summer window, which is why they decided not to panic buy in January.

The club would likely be keen on strengthening their forward line, given their struggles for goals this season, and they have now been deemed one of the frontrunners to land a Serie A star.

Tottenham battling Chelsea for Dusan Vlahovic

Juventus paid £67m to land Dusan Vlahovic from Fiorentina in January of 2022, and while he has had some decent spells at Turin, he has never appeared entirely settled at the club.

Tottenham reportedly enquired about the Juve striker in January, and it has emerged over recent days that the Lilywhites could go back in for the Serbian in the summer, when his contract at the Allianz Stadium runs out.

Journalist Carlo Pellegatti has now backed up other sources by saying that a move to England appears likely for Vlahovic, who is wanted by both Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.

Pellegatti said (via IlMilanista): “Chelsea and Tottenham, and therefore England, could be in pole position for Dusan Vlahovic’s future.”

Spurs may have one less competitor to worry about in Vlahovic race

The striker is now free to sign a pre-contract agreement with non-Italian clubs as he is in the final six months of his deal in Turin.

Reports from Italy over recent days have claimed that Vlahovic has held talks with AC Milan regarding a free transfer, but Pellegatti has insisted that the striker’s and his agent’s demands are likely to prove too expensive for the Rossoneri.

The journalist added: “I’m not surprised, because his agent’s commission demands are very high. He himself wants a signing bonus. The financial negotiations are very complicated and, in my opinion, excessive for Milan at this time.

“Giorgio Furlani buys players up to €30m, but above that he needs a countersignature. This is why Vlahovic, also for this reason, is more complicated than expected.”

A new report has shed light on what the Tottenham players thought of Thomas Frank’s personality in comparison to his predecessor, Ange Postecoglou.

Frank has now been put out of his misery by the Spurs hierarchy after an extremely testing eight-month spell in charge for the Dane.

The response from Tottenham fans to Frank’s sacking has been universally positive. In fact, if anything, most appear to think it should have been done earlier.

There was certainly a feeling based on social media that the Spurs supporters did not take to the Dane and his personality at all, and it turns out, it was a similar case internally at Hotspur Way as well.

Thomas Frank was seen as lacking the charisma for the Tottenham job

The Athletic have revealed that Frank was popular with the staff and was always keen to know everyone’s name.

However, there was a perception at the club that the Dane may be ‘too nice’ and that he lacked the ego or the charisma required to manage a club of Tottenham’s size.

The report claims that one Spurs player believes that while Postecoglou may not have been the best coach, the players respected him and admired his charisma.

The player in question added that while the squad had always listened to the Australian, they stopped listening to Frank as he did not have the personality required to coach a big team.

Frank could not get the Spurs players to work hard for him

The Athletic reveal that another long-standing training ground source stated that the players were prepared to run through a brick wall for Ange Postecoglou.

However, Frank never inspired the same respect, and the players never trained with the same intensity under the 52-year-old as they felt they could get away with less.

The outlet asserts that the former Brentford boss faced serious issues in terms of player behaviour and dynamics, which he was unable to solve.

Thomas Frank may not be out of work for too long, with one Premier League side identifying the former Tottenham boss as a managerial option this summer.

Tottenham Hotspur needed only eight months to decide to part ways with Thomas Frank, who was appointed last summer.

Poor results in the Premier League saw Spurs bring an end to the Dane’s three-year contract before completing a year of that deal.

Frank will now be looking to bounce back following a difficult run in the Tottenham dugout, but it appears he may not have to wait long.

Tottenham sacking sees Thomas Frank targeted by Crystal Palace

According to Football Insider, it is believed that Crystal Palace have already sounded out Thomas Frank to be their next manager.

Current Palace boss Oliver Glasner is expected to depart the Selhurst Park hot seat and, in an attempt to prepare for his departure, third parties are understood to have been in contact with Thomas Frank regarding a potential move to replace the Austrian.

While Frank’s reputation took a hit following his poor run at Tottenham, Palace believe he would be an ideal fit because of his impressive seven years in charge of Brentford, who operate with a similar budget and structural set-up.

Spurs weigh next managerial steps after Frank exit

Spurs currently remain without a manager and are looking to decide on the next man in the dugout in the coming weeks.

There are two paths the Lilywhites could take – either going for an interim manager who will see the rest of the season out, or appointing someone permanently.

Oliver Glasner was in no mood to answer speculation linking him with a move to Tottenham following the sacking of Thomas Frank.

Tottenham Hotspur’s focus is now on securing the next manager who will take them through yet another rebuild following the dismissal of Thomas Frank.

It has been reported that Spurs are looking to bring in a new manager on Monday as they continue to assess their options.

Whether that will be a permanent new boss or an interim option remains to be seen, with several candidates available to the Lilywhites.

Oliver Glasner is one name Tottenham have been linked with, with the Palace manager even shortlisted last year when Spurs were looking to replace Ange Postecoglou.

That search led to Thomas Frank being the preferred managerial choice for Tottenham, but with the Dane now sacked, Spurs could once again consider the Palace boss.

However, the one-time FA Cup winner was in no mood to answer speculation on Wednesday. Following Crystal Palace’s latest 3-2 defeat to Burnley, Oliver Glasner was asked about the Tottenham Hotspur job by a rather brave journalist.

MORE SPURS STORIES

The Austrian’s reply suggested he was not overly impressed with the question, especially after his side just threw away a two-goal lead to lose 3-2.

The Palace boss apparently appeared disgusted, shaking his head with a stern look, according to football reporter Bobby Manzi.

Why Glasner will not be keen on Spurs job

Glasner has spent the last few years building his reputation at Selhurst Park, with the Austrian leading Palace to their first-ever trophy when he won the FA Cup last season.

Not only has he delivered silverware, he has punched above his weight, securing a 12th-place finish in the 24/25 season, while also winning the Community Shield.

However, there seems to have been a strain in the relationship between Glasner and the Palace higher-ups, with the Eagles boss calling them out for their lack of ambition following the club’s sale of some of their top players while failing to replace them.
