Tottenham's pursuit of a new manager has been tumultuous to say the least with over two months now having passed the since dismissal of Antonio Conte. Favourites and frontrunners for the job have come and gone and there is yet to be a clear, finalised short list of names that Daniel Levy hopes to appoint.
For the final few months of the 2022/23 season, Ryan Mason has been in interim charge which has also resulted in him putting forward his case to take over permanently. Julian Nagelsmann appeared to be the first priority for Spurs, although disagreements regarding Levy's director of football decision led to him pulling out of the race.
Alongside bringing in a new coach, the director of football position also needs to be filled and will likely been done before the next manager comes in. It looked as though Spurs had found the perfect man for the job in Arne Slot, but the Feyenoord boss shattered hopes of that by making a major decision on his managerial future.
