Tottenham manager Q&A - LIVE!
Our chief football correspondent Dan Kilpatrick is on hand to answer all your questions about Tottenham’s managerial situation after Nuno Espirito Santo was sacked this morning, after only four months in charge.
The Portuguese was appointed in the summer at the end of a protracted search for Jose Mourinho’s permanent successor but, despite winning his first three league games, has failed to make it even as far as Christmas, with Saturday’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester United the final nail in the coffin.
Former Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is in talks over the now vacant job, having left Inter Milan after winning Serie A last season, but the Italian was also a target for Spurs in the summer before walking away from discussions.
The pressure is on chairman Daniel Levy and managing director Fabio Paratici to get their latest appointment right after Nuno’s doomed tenure has left the club with a misfiring team, a disgruntled fan base and a fight to salvage their season.
