Tottenham are discussing Cristian Stellini's future as interim manager with the club considering dismissing him after the shocking 6-1 defeat against Newcastle United. The Magpies scored five goals in the opening 20 minutes at St. James' Park with a number of Spurs supporters heading for the stadium exits.
Stellini took over from Antonio Conte after the Italian was sacked from his position as manager last month. Stellini's position as interim boss is now in serious doubt with speculation growing as to whether he will still be in charge for Thursday’s visit of Manchester United.
Ryan Mason is the obvious contender to replace him until the end of the season or the appointment of a new permanent manager. Julian Nagelsmann withdrew from the running to become Chelsea's new manager, leaving the door open for him to potentially be appointed by Daniel Levy at Tottenham.
