David Ornstein has said on Sky Sports that there is no guarantee that Tottenham Hotspur will offer Nuno the managerial job.

The well-known and well-respected journalist has pointed out that Tottenham have been having talks with many other candidates.

The Athletic Football Correspondent has said that despite holding talks with Nuno, Tottenham may not actually offer the former Wolverhampton Wanderers boss the job.

Ornstein said on Sky Sports: “Let’s see how the process culminates because there is no guarantee he will be offered the job.”

Interesting point

BBC Sport, The Telegraph and The Daily Mail are among the media outlets who are reporting that Nuno is the leading candidate for the Tottenham managerial role.

Now, that may be true, but Ornstein’s point is very valid indeed.

Just because Tottenham are talking with Nuno, 47, does not mean that the Portuguese will be offered the job.

We have been here before with Antonio Conte, Paulo Fonseca and Gennaro Gattuso.

Things have not worked out for Tottenham and club chairman Daniel Levy.

Ornstein is a well-known journalist who has had many scoops, and he knows fully well how these things work.

Some Tottenham fans are against the prospect of Nuno becoming the manager’s job, while others are fine.

We covered some reaction from Spurs supporters here on HITC Sport earlier today.

Whether Nuno gets the Tottenham or not, only time will tell.
