Danish boss Thomas Frank was sacked earlier this week after eight months in the job, with Tottenham just five points above the relegation zone. The hunt is now on for his replacement, with reports suggesting that Spurs plan to name an experienced head coach as an interim manager for the remainder of the season, before making a long-term appointment in the summer. Although, they are expected to consider the interim boss for the permanent role should he perform.

The name now reportedly leading the list is former Juventus manager Igor Tudor. Tottenham are thought to have verbally agreed a deal to appoint Tudor as interim head coach until the end of the season. The 47-year-old Croatian was sacked as Juve boss in October last year after just 24 games in charge. He has also had previous stints at Lazio, Marseille, and Hellas Verona but has never lasted more than 48 matches in charge in any of his jobs.
