Mauricio Pochettino to Tottenham? Argentine coach ready to return to work in London

Poor results from London’s Tottenham have forced the club’s management to consider a potential change of head coach. There is at least one candidate to replace Thomas Frank.

Details: According to journalist Ben Jacobs, Mauricio Pochettino is open to a possible return to Tottenham Hotspur in London. The current head coach of the US national team is ready to join Spurs right after the World Cup, where the United States will serve as tournament hosts.

However, Tottenham are not willing to wait that long and are planning to appoint an interim manager to guide the club through the remainder of the season.

Thomas Frank’s future at the club is under serious threat: the final straw for the management was the defeat to West Ham in the most recent Premier League round (1-2). After 22 rounds, the club has collected 27 points and sits in 14th place. In their last ten matches, the Londoners have managed only three victories.
