Tottenham sack Thomas Frank: Pochettino, De Zerbe, Glasner, Redknapp – who could take charge of Tottenham?

Tottenham fans still have a lot of affection for Pochettino, who managed them from 2014 to 2019.

The Argentine led Tottenham to the Champions League final in 2019, where they lost 2-0 to Liverpool, and also led them to second and third place in the English Premier League during his tenure.

Since his departure from Tottenham in 2019, the London club have had Jose Mourinho, Nuno Espirito Santo, Antonio Conte, Ange Postecoglou and Frank as permanent managers.

Pochettino said he would “love to return one day” to Tottenham, although a return looks unlikely unless Tottenham are willing to wait.

He had spells at Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, where he led the French giants to the Ligue 1 title.

Pochettino is currently in charge of coaching the United States and is set to lead them in the upcoming World Cup, which the United States is co-hosting.

In addition, the US Soccer Federation would be due what a knowledgeable source described as “one of the largest financial compensation fees in soccer history” if Pochettino leaves for another club before the World Cup.
