‘What the f***’: Spurs ‘roll the dice’ in big gamble as likely new PL boss revealed

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly on the verge of appointing Igor Tudor as their interim manager until the season's end, following the dismissal of Thomas Frank. A verbal agreement is said to be in place, with the deal expected to be finalized shortly.

The 47-year-old Croatian most recently managed Juventus but was sacked in October after a poor run of form. Despite that, he previously guided Juventus to a fourth-place finish in the 2024-25 season. Tudor has extensive managerial experience across clubs in Italy, France, and Turkey, including Lazio, Marseille, and Galatasaray.

The potential appointment has drawn a mixed reaction. Analysts describe it as a "bold and risky" move, with one source characterizing Tottenham as having "rolled the dice." Tudor is viewed as a specialist in "quick fixes" and a "transitional coach," tasked with stabilizing the club after Frank's brief tenure ended with a defeat to Newcastle.

Tottenham's urgency stems from their precarious league position, sitting only five points above the Premier League relegation zone.
