Lord Sugar has urged Roberto Mancini on Twitter to take charge of Tottenham Hotspur.

The former Tottenham chairman has sent a message to the ex-Manchester City boss to come to Spurs after the Euro 2020 finals.

Mancini is in charge of Italy at the European Championship.

Lord Sugar wants the 56-year-old Italian to take the Spurs manager’s job after winning the Euro 2020 finals.

Tottenham have been searching for a permanent manager since April when Jose Mourinho was sacked.

Roberto Mancini to Tottenham Hotspur?

The Telegraph has reported this month that Mancini is a manager Tottenham admire and have looked at.

However, it is unlikely that Spurs will get the former Inter Milan boss.

Yes, Mancini could win Euro 2020 with Italy, but he will then surely want to guide the team to World Cup success in 2022.

Tottenham will not play in the Champions League or the Europa League next season.

Harry Kane could also leave Spurs this summer.

It is going to be tough for any manager at Tottenham. A rebuild could be needed.

Would Mancini be willing to make the move to Spurs under such circumstances?

There is no doubt that if Tottenham are able to get Mancini, then it will be a great managerial appointment.

The Italian has won league titles with Inter and City, and his playing style is appealing as well.
