The big reason why Julian Nagelsmann might have more desire than most to turn Tottenham around

Julian Nagelsmann might just have more reason than most to want to turn Tottenham's season around if the club do look his way.

A window has suddenly opened for Tottenham with the 35-year-old about to be relieved of his duties by Bayern Munch with the German giants one point off the top of the table, with three defeats to their name, and in the quarter-finals of the Champions League and German cup. Bayern lost 2-1 at Leverkusen on Saturday and host table-topping Dortmund in their next match, with former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel expected to take over.

It means Nagelsmann suddenly arrives on the managerial market as Antonio Conte's future hangs in the balance at Tottenham, with many of the club's players expecting the Italian to depart the club before their next match against Everton. Conte has not returned from Italy yet during this international break - something he often does due to the lack of first team players to work with - and his coaches Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason have been taking charge in training.
