Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly preparing for a potential managerial change this summer as pressure mounts on current boss Igor Tudor during a difficult 2025/26 Premier League campaign.
According to a recent update by Fabrizio Romano on his official X handle, internal discussions have already begun regarding possible replacements, with the club keen to assess long-term options amid growing relegation concerns. Spurs’ recent form has intensified scrutiny, prompting the hierarchy to consider a strategic reset ahead of next season.
Romano reported:
Tottenham keep assessing internally best options for managerial situation to evolve in next days/summer. Roberto De Zerbi, favorite candidate from June and Italian manager open to discuss from summer. Marco Silva also being discussed internally.
Softfootball understands that leading the shortlist is Roberto De Zerbi, who has recently departed Olympique de Marseille by mutual agreement. The Italian coach has earned widespread praise for his progressive, high-pressing style since leaving Brighton & Hove Albion in 2024, and is reportedly open to discussions over a move to North London.
Another strong candidate is Marco Silva, currently managing Fulham.
Silva’s consistent performances in the Premier League and his experience in stabilizing teams make him an appealing option, though some fans remain cautious given Tottenham’s recent instability.
As uncertainty surrounds Tudor’s future, the club’s next decision could prove crucial in shaping their long-term direction.
