"Tottenham are closing in on the appointment of De Zerbi, but it doesn't come without issues on and off the pitch. There has been a breakthrough in talks and now the Italian is ready to perform a U-turn on his previous stance of not wanting to consider taking the Spurs job until the summer."
"Tottenham have offered him a five-year contract on a lucrative salary that would make him the third best-paid manager in the Premier League behind only Mikel Arteta of Arsenal and Manchester City's Pep Guardiola."
"While Gold confirms that his style of football matches how Spurs senior chiefs want the club to play, it could be risky across seven matches given what is at stake, and how he is working with a group of players whose confidence is at rock-bottom given they are without a league win in 2026."
Tottenham Hotspur is seeking to appoint Roberto De Zerbi as their next manager following Igor Tudor's departure after just 44 days. Tudor's tenure was marked by poor performance, earning only one point from five matches and failing in the Champions League. With the team precariously close to the relegation zone, Spurs are optimistic about De Zerbi's potential appointment, offering him a lucrative five-year contract. Despite concerns about the risk involved, De Zerbi is now open to taking the role immediately.
