Tottenham eyeing up move for Xabi Alonso
"Xabi Alonso has been sacked by Real Madrid after the Spanish Super Cup final defeat against Barcelona, and Tottenham are hoping to bring him in. According to a report from Fichajes, the Spanish manager already has an offer on the table from the North London club, and the club has opened formal negotiations to appoint him as their new manager. It has been a disappointing season for Tottenham, and Thomas Frank could be shown the door soon."
"Frank was appointed club manager at the start of the season, expected to turn things around after a disappointing season last year. Spurs were in the relegation battle last season, but they managed to win the UEFA Europa League. Frank was expected to get his team firing in the Premier League this season. They started the season well, but they have struggled in recent weeks. It will be interesting to see if Alonso is prepared to take over at the London club."

Tottenham sit in mid-table after a series of disappointing performances this season and may replace Thomas Frank, who was appointed at the season start to improve results. Frank led Spurs to a Europa League title despite a prior relegation battle but has struggled to sustain Premier League form this season. Alonso impressed at Leverkusen with an attacking philosophy and is linked with a Premier League move; he is regarded as an excellent managerial prospect for Tottenham.
