Tottenham are exploring their options after sacking Thomas Frank on Wednesday morning, with Roberto De Zerbi and one of their current coaches, John Heitinga, in the conversation.
It is unclear whether the chief executive, Vinai Venkatesham, and the sporting director, Johan Lange, who are overseeing the process, will favour an interim choice which could be Heitinga. If they did, it would buy them time until the summer when other candidates could be available, including Mauricio Pochettino and Andoni Iraola.
