Tottenham have parted ways with Igor Tudor and immediately stepped up their search for a new manager to save them from relegation.
Spurs have confirmed that Tudor has left by mutual consent following last weekend’s 3-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest.
Tudor learned after that defeat of the death of his father Mario and both parties have agreed a mutual parting of ways.
Spurs say “an update on a new head coach will be provided in due course”.
Bruno Saltor will lead training for the players not currently away on international duty and Spurs plan to appoint a new head coach in the coming days, so someone is in place for when the players return from international duty.
That would give the new manager around 10 days to prepare for their next game away at Sunderland on April 12.
Roberto De Zerbi, Mauricio Pochettino and Andoni Iraola would all be in the frame for the permanent head coach position in the summer, if Spurs are still in the Premier League.
But Adi Hutter, Sean Dyche and Harry Redknapp are available options for the job now, as Spurs seek a manager to save them from relegation. Robbie Keane and Marco Silva have also been linked with the job.
In a statement on Sunday, Spurs said: “We can confirm that it has been mutually agreed for head coach Igor Tudor to leave the club with immediate effect.
“Tomislav Rogic and Riccardo Ragnacci have also left their respective roles of goalkeeping coach and physical coach.
“We thank Igor, Tomislav and Riccardo for their efforts during the past six weeks, in which they worked tirelessly. We also acknowledge the bereavement that Igor has recently suffered and send our support to him and his family at this difficult time.
“An update on a new head coach will be provided in due course.”
Tudor leaves Spurs after just 44 days in charge and his exit ends one of the shortest managerial reigns in Premier League history.
The Croatian oversaw one win from seven games, including four defeats out of five in the Premier League.
Spurs remain without a top-flight win in 2026 and are just one point above the relegation zone with seven games remaining.
Dyche has been out of work since being sacked by Nottingham Forest in February.
Hutter left Monaco in October, while former 79-year-old Spurs boss Redknapp’s last job was a short stint at Birmingham in 2017 when he came in late in the season to save them from relegation.
