Graham Potter does not want to become the new Tottenham Hotspur manager and is hoping to take charge of Manchester City in the future, according to The Sun.
What’s the story?
The Sun are reporting this evening that Potter would snub a potential move to Tottenham.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy has been looking at the Englishman as a potential candidate for the vacant managerial role.
Brighton and Hove Albion will demand a £15 million compensation fee for Potter, who himself does not wish to make the move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium now.
The 46-year-old is reportedly willing to wait and continue to enhance his reputation at Brighton.
Potter eventually hopes to take charge of City, now under the management of Pep Guardiola.
The Englishman would be tempted to leave Brighton only for a top-four job.
Ambitious?
According to this report in The Sun, it seems that Potter is very ambitious indeed.
The Englishman has done well at Brighton, keeping the Seagulls in the Premier League by playing good entertaining football.
Tottenham are a big club who reached the Champions League final in 2019, and leaving the Seagulls for the North London outfit would be a step-up in many observers’ eyes.
City have one of the best mangers in the world in Guardiola.
When the Spaniard eventually leaves, the Premier League champions are likely to appoint someone who is a proven winner and has won lots of major trophies.
Potter may not be in the conversation.
