Tottenham Hotspur sacked head coach Thomas Frank on Wednesday, February 11, after a poor run of results. The club currently sits sixteenth in the Premier League, five points clear of the relegation zone.
Spurs aim to appoint an interim manager by Monday, February 16, ahead of the players' return to training. This temporary boss will lead the team for the remainder of the season.
Former Tottenham players Ryan Mason and Robbie Keane have been linked with the interim role, alongside current staff member John Heitinga. However, reports suggest Keane would not consider a caretaker position.
A permanent manager is expected to be appointed in the summer. Mauricio Pochettino, Roberto De Zerbi, and Marco Rose are among the candidates for the long-term position. Pochettino's commitment to the USA national team for the World Cup complicates an immediate return.
