There is no escaping the magnitude of the decision coming Daniel Levy's way. His call on Tottenham's next manager is enormous and one that will shape the club's future going forward.
With Arsenal and Manchester United drastically improving after regularly finding themselves behind Tottenham in the past few years, Newcastle United very much in the mix for Champions League football due to their wealthy owners and with Liverpool and Chelsea unlikely to repeat their woes from this term, Levy and Tottenham must get things right. If not, there is the very real possibility that they will find themselves some way behind their rivals and playing catch-up for quite some time
The high-profile appointment of Jose Mourinho as head coach in November 2019 did not result in the silverware Levy and the club craved, with the less said about Nuno Espirito Santo's reign the better. Antonio Conte did manage to turn around the club's fortunes and lead them to a top-four finish against the odds, but his Spurs tenure now looks set to come to an abrupt end after an extremely frustrating second season in the hotseat.
