It has been reported that Tottenham Hotspur are yet to contact Mauricio Pochettino over making a return to the club as their next manager.
As Spurs drew 1-1 to Everton, courtesy of a last-gasp belter from Michael Keane, the away support at Goodison Park were audibly heard chanting the Argentine’s name.
While it seems like a number of Tottenham Hotspur fans remain keen on Mauricio Pochettino returning to the club as their next manager, the same is not the case at board level.
Pochettino may not be set for a return as Tottenham manager
The former Paris Saint-Germain boss, described as ‘one of the best managers in the world, if not the best manager in the world’ by Andros Townsend via talkSPORT is an N17 legend.
The 51-year-old spearheaded the club to their first Champions League final, make them a staple member of the top four and ensured that the club play an aesthetically pleasing brand of football.
Now, the Athletic have reported that while Mauricio Pochettino remains open to becoming the next Tottenham manager, the club are yet to contact him over a return.
It is likely that a bunch of the Lilywhites supporters may be fuming upon hearing this news.
Worth looking at alternatives
Sure, Mauricio Pochettino would be a safe bet to perform upon his return as Tottenham Hotspur manager.
But names like Julian Nagelsmann, Arne Slot and Brendan Rodgers are worth exploring, as the club aim to move in a new direction.
The trophy hoodoo continues to exist at the club while employing a manager that can win silverware while implementing a sustainable style of play remains a challenge.
While Pochettino could potentially win a trophy upon his return to the club, one can see why the club are looking to move away from familiar territory for the time being.
