If that turns out to be the case, Express Sport has selected four potential options to take over from the Dane.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>They say never to go back to your ex, but Mauricio Pochettino could be the perfect antidote to Spurs&#8217; current problems. In fact, he is the only manager in recent memory to have galvanized the North Londoners over several seasons, and the Argentine has gone on to achieve a great deal since his first spell ended. The only stumbling block here is that Tottenham will likely have to wait until the summer, given that Pochettino is gearing up to lead America to their home World Cup.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>I guess the Spurs couldn&#8217;t do it? Oliver Glasner has announced his intention to step down as Crystal Palace manager when his contract expires at the end of this season. He cites wanting a &#8220;new challenge&#8221; as his reason, and there are few jobs bigger than the Tottenham job at the moment. The Austrian has been linked with a vacant Manchester United position, but what if Spurs snuck in first?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>What a heel turn this is. From West London to North London, imagine if Enzo Maresca was the man who ushered in a new era of success at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The Spurs organization itself has many critics, with a broken relationship with the board cited as the reason for the Italian&#8217;s departure earlier this month, but Maresca is likely to be given more license to build the team he sees fit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>And finally, this is probably the most likely appointment if Spurs decide to pursue a new manager midway through the season. Marco Silva did a great job at Fulham, but it feels like there isn&#8217;t much the Portuguese tactician can do against the Cottage. Now in his late 40s, Silva feels this could be the perfect opportunity to leave Fulham and step up to one of the Premier League&#8217;s biggest teams.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2159160\/tottenham-next-manager-silva-maresca-pochettino-glasner\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frank replaced Ange Postecoglou, who was sacked after the victory in Bilbao, but Spurs appear to be looking for a new coach.
