The Sun are reporting that there are three major issues regarding Tottenham Hotspur and Nuno.
What’s the story?
Tottenham are reportedly in talks with Nuno regarding becoming the North London club’s manager.
The former Wolverhampton Wanderers manager is keen on taking over at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
But, there are three major issues.
Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is ‘unconvinced by Nuno’s pragmatic style of play’.
The English businessman is also not taken by the 47-year-old’s reluctant to ‘blood young players’.
There is a third problem as well.
Nuno, described as “a brilliant manager” by former Crystal Palace forward Clinton Morrison on Sky Sports News (1:43pm, April 24, 2021), reportedly wants a major say on signings.
But Tottenham recently appointed Fabio Paratici as the managing director to head transfers.
Could the issues be resolved?
Based on this report, you could say that there is a chance that Tottenham could end up not appointing Nuno.
The issue about the Portuguese having a big say in transfers could be resolved.
The former Valencia boss could be convinced that it is better for Spurs in the long term that Paratici makes the final decision.
The playing style might remain a sticking point.
Although Wolves did play decent football before last season, it was not to the level of how Spurs played under Mauricio Pochettino.
As for using young players, not many managers will be keen on giving youngsters the chance when they know that a few bad results could see them get sacked.
