Tottenham striker suffers season-ending injury and the hunt for Fabio Paratici’s replacement| SolSportHQ
Rewritten:
Following another tumultuous week at Tottenham Hotspur, we held a Q&A session with Alasdair Gold to get his insights. When asked about the rumor of Julian Nagelsmann potentially joining Spurs, Alasdair stated that the German coach seems more receptive to the idea after dropping out of the running for the Chelsea job and with Carlo Ancelotti staying at Real Madrid. Although Tottenham was not keen on being a fall-back option, Nagelsmann’s ability to be a glamour appointment and a project manager could make him an attractive candidate. Alasdair also confirmed that Michel Vorm is likely to be part of the coaching team, alongside other experienced staff members who are yet to be announced.
Regarding Nagelsmann’s appointment, Alasdair explained that taking him before the season ends would result in a hefty compensation fee, as he is on gardening leave. Therefore, waiting until the summer may be a better option to avoid risking other potential targets. Alasdair also expressed his belief that Nagelsmann would be a good choice as he can meet both the requirements of being a project manager and keeping Kane interested.
On a positive note, Alasdair pointed out that there are plenty of talented managerial options out there to take Spurs forward, given the right backing and patience. He also shed light on the new chief football officer, Scott Munn, who will be taking over from Fabio Paratici and overseeing all the football aspects of the club, including hiring a director of football.
Regarding the number of center-backs Spurs are planning to sign this summer, Alasdair revealed that the plan was to get two, but this may change based on the new coach’s preference. Finally, when asked about whether Giovani Lo Celso could continue with Tottenham next season, Alasdair suggested that it depends on the new coach’s approach and how much interest Spurs receives for him.
