Wait 5 sec.

Tottenham Hotspur are considering making a move for an Austrian manager who has forged a reputation for wanting his teams to play attacking, high-intensity football.The Spurs hierarchy will hope that Igor Tudor will be able to guide the club to safety, but the Croat appears unlikely to stay beyond the summer, with his contract ending in June.It has been claimed by some sources that Roberto De Zerbi is near the top of Tottenham’s wishlist, with the Italian thought to be looking to return to the Premier League in the summer after parting ways with Marseille.However, the man who appears to be the favourite for the role is Mauricio Pochettino, who has been linked with a return to N17 when his contract with the USA runs out in the summer.Photo by Justin Setterfield/Getty ImagesTottenham consider appointing Adi HutterJournalist Rudy Galetti has now revealed that another name has been added to Tottenham’s managerial shortlist.He asserts that Spurs are eyeing Adi Hutter, who has huge experience managing clubs across his native country, Germany and France.It is revealed that Tottenham ‘have gathered information’ on Hutter, with the former Monaco boss being one of the options considered to take over from Tudor at the end of the campaign.Galetti wrote on X: “Tottenham have gathered information on Adi Hütter as a potential replacement for Igor Tudor.
