Next Permanent Spurs Manager Odds After Nuno

Spurs have announced that Portuguese manager Nuno Espirito Santo has been sacked from his role at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium following their 3-0 defeat at the hands of Manchester United on Saturday night.

The former Wolves manager’s style of play proved to be very unpopular to fans of the Lilywhites and following a poor start to their Premier League season which has seen Tottenham pick up 15 points from 10 games, scoring just nine goals in total, whilst leaking 16, the former FC Porto goalkeeper has been relieved from his duties with immediate effect.

Antonio Conte comes in as the firm favourite for the vacant managerial role at Tottenham, as the Italian is priced at 1/8, despite turning down the Lilywhites in the summer. Spurs haven’t won a trophy since they won the League Cup back in the 2007/08 season, whilst the Italian is available without any compensation having left Inter Milan in the summer, whom he led to their first league title since 2010 last campaign.

After all, Conte re-built Juventus in his time as manager between 2011 and 2014 and effectively started their nine-year dynasty in Italian football, winning them three league titles and two Supercoppa Italianas on a limited budget that saw the Old Lady be astute with their dealings, signing the likes of Andrea Pirlo and Paul Pogba on free transfers. The 52-year-old also won Chelsea their last league title in the 2016/17 campaign following their 10th place finish under Guus Hiddink, following a turbulent start to the season under Jose Mourinho, further proving that the Juventus icon can offer instant success

Conte could be a very good option for Spurs, who are looking to get back into the Champions League having not played a match in the competition since the latter end of the 2019/20 season.

Paulo Fonseca is priced at 12/1 to become Tottenham’s next manager following the sacking of Nuno, having also been linked to the job in the summer.

The 48-year-old recently left AS Roma which was his 11th job since 2007, having also managed the likes of FC Porto and Shakhtar Donetsk. Fonseca’s best spell as a manager came between 2016 and 2019 where he won three league titles managing Shakhtar, which was somewhat of a rebuild in his career, having only won the Supertaca Candido de Oliveira in 2013 with Porto following a 57% win percentage.

Fonseca’s second spell at Braga where he led them to a Taca de Portugal in the 2015/16 season lead him to the Shakhtar job. At Roma, Fonseca had a 52% win percentage having won 53 of his 102 games in charge, before leaving at the end of last season after a seventh-place finish, as two-place regression from his first campaign at the Stadio Olimpico club.

Spurs are priced at 10/1 to hire Fonseca as their next permanent manager.

Brighton & Hove Albion manager Graham Potter is also on this list, having impressed during his time at the Amex Stadium.

The Seagulls have had their best-ever start to a Premier League campaign, picking up 16 points from 10 matches, seeing them sit seventh in the table whilst playing an attractive style of football. Brighton were known for creating large amounts of chances last season under Potter, but, their conversion rate didn’t see them pick up the results they deserved, but with the likes of Harry Kane in Tottenham’s side, goal conversion rates is something that he wouldn’t need to worry about.

In his time at Swedish Allsvenskan side, Ostersunds, Potter earned two promotions with them and won the Swedish Cup in 2017, earning them qualification for the Europa League the following campaign. His impressive achievements in Sweden saw him then become Swansea manager, where he guided the Swans to a 10th place finish on a limited budget.

Potter is priced at 10/1 to leave Brighton to join Tottenham.

Spurs coach Ryan Mason comes in at 16/1 to be named as the club’s next permanent manager.

The former Tottenham midfielder is the Head of Player Development in Tottenham Hotspur’s academy and served as an interim head coach following the sacking of Jose Mourinho last season, winning four and losing three of his even matches in charge of the Lilywhites last campaign, which at 57.1% is better than Nuno’s win rate.

This would be a progressive step up for Mason who proved that he could be capable of managing the club in the future last season, although with little experience, it would be a huge job to get.

Mason is priced at 16/1 to step up to the role of next permanent Tottenham manager.

Eddie Howe also features on this list of managers in line for the vacant managerial role at Tottenham.

Howe has not had a job since leaving Bournemouth following their relegation from the Premier League at the end of last season. He is best known for his time at the Cherries, managing them for 12 years till his departure in 2020, with a one and a half-season spell at Burnley separating his two spells at Dean Court between January 2011 and October 2012. His time at Bournemouth saw him take the Cherries from the bottom of the League Two table to as high as ninth place in the Premier League in 2016/17.

The former Bournemouth manager tends to setup sides in a more attractive way than the likes of Mourinho and Espirito Santo, as he is an attack-minded manager which is something that Spurs fans are craving for and with Howe being free and available without any compensation fee, the 43-year-old could be a good fit for the job.

Howe is priced at 20/1 to become Tottenham’s next manager.

Former fan favourite Mauricio Pochettino is also in the fray for a sensational return to Spurs, with the Argentinian under huge pressure to deliver at PSG.

Rumours were circulating in the summer that the 49-year-old former Espanyol defender was willing to leave PSG to return to Spurs, but, due to the Parisian’s desire to keep the Argentian, he was forced to stay at the Ligue 1 side.

Pochettino is well known for playing an exciting and high tempo brand of football and helping to build squads that are capable of challenging for titles and honours, such as when he took Spurs to the Champions League final in 2019, which is something that Spurs crave to see once again.

The 49-year-old is under huge pressure to deliver what would be PSG’s first-ever Champions League title, but, following drab displays in Ligue 1, and having subbed off Lionel Messi at halftime in their 2-1 victory over Lille, the Parisian press are on the Argentinian’s back.

Pochettino is priced at 25/1 for a sensational return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
