Tottenham desperate for a high-profile manager

Bayern took Nagelsmann, Rogers is happy with Leicester City and Ten Hag signed a one-year extension with Ajax. What is for Tottenham to do?

All managers Daniel Levy was interested in bringing to White Hart Lane are clearly unavailable so a forgotten name appeared as an option to take over the Spurs - Massimiliano Allegri.

North Londoners are in a pursuit of a managerial replacement for Jose Mourinho, who was sacked last week and replaced by Ryan Mason prior to their Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.

Tottenham chief Levy is on a hunt for an attack-minded manager and the club believes Allegri could be the right choice.

Ever since leaving the Serie A giants in 2019, Allegri has been taking English lessons and is continuously linked with a move to the Premier League.

But as current Juventus manager Andrea Pirlo looks close to being fired from Allianz Stadium, there is also a chance of Massimiliano Allegri returning to Turin.

Pirlo's situation seems couple of matches away from being sacked, regardless of whether the reigning champions finish in the top four or not.

A fox will not become a rooster

Levy was most determined in persuading Brendan Rogers to take over Tottenham and will probably push for the former Liverpool boss again.

Nagelsmann made a deal with the giants from Munich while Erik Ten Hag decided to stay at least one more year in Amsterdam.

Allegri won 5 Serie A titles in a row with Juve and made Milan champions of Italy in the 2010/2011 season.

As far as Spurs former coach is concerned, The Special One has not taken long to find a new part-time job.Jose Mourinho joined radio station talkSPORT for their coverage of this summer's European Championships.

"As a football man I always look to football.' Mourinho spoke about his new role.

"I look very much forward to it because I believe it is going to be something new and something incredible.

"I am totally absorbed by football, I just love to work. In this moment I have not been working for a week and I am missing it already. Let's enjoy."
