Hardly comes as a surprise. Some decent managers kicking about that they could try and get, might want to change from their last 3 choices with the tag of "hard to watch football". I think a lot of the players would benefit from being more expansive.
They'd be mad if they didn't do everything they could to get Nagelsmann.

Harry Kane reportedly thrilled with the new knowledge that anyone who criticises the Spurs owner or Board gets to leave.

He'd be mad to go there, is a proper career staller of a job.

My spurs supporting friend going all classic Spursy and saying he is not at Spurs level and they need 'a true elite manager'. Scenes, from me, on the WhatsApp

It would be a bit of a risk for sure, but if he was to go in there and give them that something extra, it would be a massive career boost. I also think that even if he fails, there is enough in the bank from him that it wouldn't put too much of a dent in his career.

All Spurs need is a forward thinking progressive manager and about 300m for transfers. Levy and the board are more of the issue there.

Your mate sounds like a fcuking idiot!
the BBC has put a list up of potential suiters
Luis Enrique
Age: 52 Nationality: Spanish Club: Unattached
An out-of-work manager and reportedly interested in the vacancy at Tottenham.
Luis Enrique left his role as Spain boss after being knocked out of the World Cup by Morocco in the last 16 in December, having previously guided his country to the Euro 2020 semi-finals.
His most successful period as manager at club level came with Barcelona. Between 2014 and 2017 he won the Champions League and guided them to two La Liga titles, three Copa del Reys, the Super Cup, the Club World Cup and Spanish Super Cup.
Thomas Frank
Age: 49 Nationality: Danish Club: Brentford
Thomas Frank took Brentford into the Premier League for the first time in their history and helped them to a creditable 13th-place finish last season.
The Dane has worked wonders on an an extremely limited budget and the resources and fanbase of Tottenham could be appealing if they were to come calling.
This season he has taken the Bees to the verge of a European place, with the club eighth in the Premier League.
Oliver Glasner
Age: 48 Nationality: Austrian Club: Eintracht Frankfurt
The Eintracht Frankfurt boss is one of the lesser-known managers being linked with replacing Conte.
Glasner, whose contract expires in 2024, took Frankfurt to an impressive Europa League win last season in their first European final since 1980.
He previously led Wolfsburg into the Champions League, having already impressed at Austrian side LASK.
Ryan Mason
Age: 31 Nationality: English Club: Tottenham
Former Spurs midfielder Mason has previously had a spell as interim boss at the club.
Mason retired from playing in 2018 after suffering a fractured skull while playing for Hull City and subsequently moved into coaching. He was a member of Conte's coaching staff and will be Stellini's assistant until the end of the season.
He was the club's interim boss in 2021 after the sacking of Jose Mourinho and could fancy the job on a more permanent basis.
Julian Nagelsmann
Age: 35 Nationality: German Club: Unattached
Has Nagelsmann's sacking from Bayern Munich presented Tottenham with an opportunity? The German was replaced by Thomas Tuchel on Friday, despite having won the Bundesliga in his first season in charge and losing just three games in the league this season to trail Dortmund by a point.
The former RB Leipzig boss had also guided Bayern to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, with eight wins from eight and seven clean sheets.
Mauricio Pochettino
Age: 50 Nationality: Argentine Club: Unattached
Pochettino is a clear favourite with many, having managed Tottenham between 2014-19 after leading Southampton to an eighth-placed Premier League finish in his first full season in charge.
He came agonisingly close to ending Spurs' long wait for silverware - taking them to Premier League runners-up in 2016-17 and the Champions League final two years later, which they lost to Liverpool.
Pochettino was dismissed months later and went on to manage Ligue 1 giants Paris St-Germain, claiming the league title and cup in France before leaving last summer.
Marco Silva
Age: 45 Nationality: Portuguese Club: Fulham
Could Silva be tempted away from Fulham?
The Cottagers boss guided them to automatic promotion back into the Premier League in May and this season has overseen a strong campaign that sees them ninth in the table.
Silva first came to England to manage Hull City in January 2017 and has also had spells in charge at Everton, Sporting Lisbon and Olympiakos.
Cristian Stellini
Age: 48 Nationality: Italian Club: Tottenham
Stellin was Conte's assistant coach at Spurs and will step up as interim boss until the end of the season.
Conte appointed Stellini at Tottenham in September 2021, but the Italian also worked under him at Juventus in 2012 and at Inter Milan in 2019.
Could he be offered the permanent job if results go his way?
Roberto de Zerbi
Age: 43 Nationality: Italian Club: Brighton
De Zerbi has impressed hugely since being appointed Brighton manager in September.
The former Shakhtar Donetsk boss succeeded Graham Potter at the Seagulls and has taken them to seventh in the Premier League and pushing for European qualification.
De Zerbi, who left Shakhtar in July because of the war in Ukraine, signed a four-year contract at Amex Stadium and has previously impressed during three years in charge at Italian club Sassuolo.
Zinedine Zidane
Age: 50 Nationality: French Club: Unattached
Zidane is another high-profile manager out of work, though whether he is looking for another job at the moment is another matter.
A World Cup and European Championship winner with France as a player, he won the Champions League three times and La Liga twice as Real Madrid boss. Would undoubtedly be a statement appointment.
Luis Enrique

Personally would try for Thomas Frank and whoever Brentford's recruitment team are.

Brentford like Brighton's success is all down to the geniuses of the owners. They are the brains behind the recent success.

They'll end up with Silva from Fulham and he'll be gone by Christmas.
That would be absolute classic Spurs.

Luis Enrique might not be a bad choice for Spurs, always thought he is a good manager and you'd imagine would be a bit easier on the eye and less controversial. Him or Nagelsmann would be the most appropriate choices, others may be a bit harder to get.
