De Zerbi is only candidate currently talking to Spurs
Tottenham intend to give Italian a long-term contract
Roberto De Zerbi has moved closer to becoming Tottenham’s new manager after further negotiations on Monday. The club have made him their prime target to replace Igor Tudor and save them from what would be a ruinous relegation to the Championship.
De Zerbi is in fact the only live candidate given that Spurs are not talking to anyone else. The makeup of his backroom staff has also been discussed.
Tudor left his post as the interim manager on Sunday after failing to spark an upturn in form but Spurs want to appoint De Zerbi in the coming days on a long-term contract. They believe the Italian can keep them in the Premier League and they can then build with him for next season.
