00:00Tottenham Hotspur are in advance discussions to sign Robert De Zerbe as their new manager.
00:08BBC Sports have reported that while De Zerbe had initially preferred to wait until the end of the season, he
00:15was now willing to take charge immediately.
00:18Discussions have been described as positive, with both sides believed to be moving towards a final agreement on a long
00:26-term contract.
00:28The 46-year-old has been available since leaving Marseille in February.
00:33Tottenham are currently 17th in the Premier League table, just one point above the relegation zone, and are yet to
00:42record a league win in 2026.
00:45The urgency to appoint a new manager follows the departure of interim head coach Igor Tudor, who left by mutual
00:53consent after just 44 days in charge.
00:56The decision to part wage from Tudor comes after a 3-0 defeat at home to Nottingham Forest.
01:04Igor Tudor has recently revealed the death of his father as well, contributing to the mutual agreement.
01:12However, the potential appointment has drawn criticism from some supporters due to De Zerbe's past support for Mason Greenwood, who
01:23previously played under him in France.
