Spurs in Talks to Appoint Roberto De Zerbi as Coach

Tottenham Hotspur is reportedly in advanced negotiations to appoint Roberto De Zerbi as their new head coach. Multiple sources indicate that the 46-year-old Italian coach is a preferred candidate, although he initially considered waiting until the end of the season to take on a new role.

The discussions are described as positive, with indications that a final agreement is approaching. Tottenham is looking to secure De Zerbi following the departure of interim head coach Igor Tudor, who left the club by mutual consent after a 3-0 defeat.

Tudor had been in charge for just 44 days. The club's chief executive, Vinai Venkatesham, and sporting director, Johan Lang, are tasked with appointing a replacement.

De Zerbi is available after leaving Marseille in February, and Tottenham is reportedly prepared to offer him a long-term contract. The article also mentions support for De Zerbi from former striker Mason Greenwood, amidst controversy surrounding Greenwood's past.
