Feyenoord boss Arne Slot is the latest manager who will not be named as the new Tottenham Hotspur head coach despite persistent links.
Slot had become the frontrunner for the vacant position in north London but he has now confirmed that he intends to stay with the Eredivisie champions instead. It is a huge blow to Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, who will now have to reassess his options.
“There is not - and there has not been - transfer conversation and yesterday’s meeting was exclusively for an extension", Slot said when discussing his future. "All talks with the club have always been only in that sense. I'm looking forward to next season with Feyenoord.”
