Roberto De Zerbi has clarified what he will do if Tottenham Hotspur get relegated from the Premier League this season.There is no doubt that eyebrows were raised when it was announced that De Zerbi had signed a five-year deal with Tottenham, given his history of not lasting long at clubs.Many assumed that De Zerbi would be off in the summer if Spurs get relegated, but reports have indicated that the Tottenham boss has no relegation break clause in his contract. In fact, some sources have claimed that the Italian is committed to rebuilding Spurs even if they are in the Championship next term, and the 46-year-old has now clarified his stance.Photo by Giuseppe Maffia/NurPhoto via Getty ImagesRoberto De Zerbi confirms he will be Tottenham boss next seasonIn his first interview as Spurs boss, the newcomer reiterated that he sees this as a long-term project in North London – something the Lilywhites haven’t really had in practice since Mauricio Pochettino.De Zerbi insisted that he will remain in charge of the North London club next season, even if they are not in the top tier of English football for the first time in 48 years.He told the club’s official channel: “I signed a five-year contract because for me, it is a big challenge.
