Tottenham Hotspur are in advanced discussions with Roberto De Zerbi  The Italian is now prepared to take charge immediately, according to sources. Author | Greg S While De Zerbi had initially been open to the position but inclined to wait until the end of the season, Tottenham have intensified their efforts in recent days to secure an earlier appointment. Watch | What Spurs fans could expect tactically from their potential new manager Negotiations are understood to be progressing well, with those close to the situation suggesting an agreement is moving within reach. Spurs are believed to be ready to offer the 46-year-old a long-term contract. He has been out of work since leaving Olympique de Marseille in February.

We have been talking with Spurs fans about the latest development at their club  It has been announced that Igor Tudor has left his role as Spurs interim head coach after just 44 days and seven matches. Author | Josh T It was a run that saw more chaos and the club only pick up one Premier League point. Greg: I feel more relieved than anything. There was some early optimism given his reputation on the continent, but the Premier League is a very different proposition. For me, Harry Redknapp stands out as the most logical option among those available. The 3-1 defeat against Crystal Palace was one of many low points for Tudor Stephen: What is needed now is a sense of stability and renewed confidence. The club should be looking to its own. Harry Redknapp alongside Tim Sherwood would bring authority, while Ryan Mason and Ledley King could add belief and tactical understanding. This feels like a decisive moment for the board and they cannot afford to get it wrong. Clair: The appointment...

Tottenham Hotspur 3 - 2 Atletico Madrid (Atletico Madrid won 7-5 on aggregate) Spurs claimed a deserved victory against Atletico Madrid but fell short in their attempt to overturn a three-goal deficit. Author | Greg S  Stadium | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium The home side were left with too much to do after a calamitous 5-2 first-leg defeat in Madrid, one of four losses in five matches since Tudor replaced Thomas Frank. There were, however, further signs of progress. Following the 1-1 draw at Liverpool, this was another encouraging display in an absorbing second leg, offering hope as attention turns to the more pressing task of avoiding relegation from the Premier League. Needing an early foothold, Spurs began brightly and took the lead on the half-hour when Randal Kolo Muani headed in an inviting cross from Mathys Tel for his fourth goal of the campaign. Tel soon had the chance to unsettle the visitors further after racing through on goal, but Juan Musso, deputising for the injured Ja...

Where did all go wrong? Two draws and four defeats for Premier League sides in the Champions League Author | Josh T Real Madrid’s ruthless dismissal of Manchester City summed up a chastening 24 hours for the Premier League, with its claim to be the world’s strongest league placed under uncomfortable scrutiny. City now face a daunting task to keep their Champions League hopes alive after suffering a similar, though less chaotic, fate to Tottenham, who were beaten 5-2 by Atletico Madrid in the Spanish capital a day earlier. Federico Valverde’s superb first-half hat-trick has left Real firmly in command of the tie, the Spanish champions carrying a 3-0 lead into the second leg of this last-16 encounter. The result capped a sobering run of outcomes for England’s leading clubs, all of whom now have work to do to preserve their involvement in Europe’s premier competition. The ok, the bad and the ugly for other sides Chelsea also unravelled after the interval, slipping to the same scoreline as...

Atletico Madrid 5 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur  We try to summarise a chaotic night for Spurs as their nightmare season continues Author | Greg S Stadium |  Metropolitano Tottenham’s calamitous campaign reached another bleak chapter as goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky endured a torrid 17 minutes before being substituted in a chastening Champions League defeat at Atletico Madrid. Handed a start ahead of Guglielmo Vicario, the 22-year-old Czech twice lost his footing in the opening stages, gifting goals to Marcos Llorente and Julian Alvarez.  In between those awful moments, Micky van de Ven also slipped, allowing Antoine Griezmann to add a third, before Robin Le Normand struck a fourth after just 23 breathless minutes. Tottenham’s last 6 results...

It was another bad weekend for Tottenham fans. Their 4-1 derby day defeat against Arsenal means they are deep in relegation trouble. Author | Greg S Igor Tudor’s plain speaking suggested there were no illusions about the scale of the task awaiting him after he replaced the sacked Thomas Frank to take charge of Spurs until the end of the season. If any doubts lingered, they were swiftly dispelled by the manner in which Spurs were brushed aside by Arsenal. Randal Kolo Muani’s bustling equaliser briefly offered hope, but once the hosts fell behind early in the second half the contest was effectively settled. There was no shortage of effort from the home side, yet this depleted squad was outmatched throughout, with the gulf in quality between Spurs and Arsenal starkly exposed. Tudor now heads back to the training ground facing a genuine relegation battle. Spurs sit 16th, four points clear of the bottom three, with little margin for error. This was a bruising introduction for the Croatian a...

Thomas Frank has been dismissed by Tottenham  The decision comes after fewer than eight months in charge, the decision coming in the wake of Tuesday’s 2-1 home defeat by Newcastle. Author | Greg S The result left Spurs 16th in the Premier League, five points clear of the relegation zone, and extended a bleak sequence that has defined much of their campaign. They are without a win in eight league matches, their longest such run since October 2008. Across their past 17 fixtures they have managed only two victories, collecting 12 points from a possible 51. How Spurs have responded In a statement, Tottenham said they had been “determined to give Thomas the time and support needed to build for the future together”, but concluded that “recent results have made a change at this point necessary”. The story of a strange time for Spurs Frank was appointed in June following the dismissal of Ange Postecoglou and signed a contract running until 2028. While performances in Europe offered enc...

 PSG 5 - 3 Tottenham Hotspur Tottenham Hotspur suffered their first Champions League loss of the season, twice surrendering the lead in a frantic contest against holders Paris St-Germain. Author | Greg S Stadium | Parc des Princes For an hour, Thomas Frank’s side offered a marked improvement on the listless performance that drew heavy criticism after the north London derby defeat by Arsenal , yet they still could not keep PSG at arm’s length. Richarlison put Spurs ahead with a close-range header after 35 minutes, only for PSG to level on the cusp of the interval when Vitinha arrowed a fine right-footed shot beyond Guglielmo Vicario. Randal Kolo Muani restored the advantage five minutes into the second half with a scrappy effort against his parent club, but that goal merely prompted PSG to unleash the kind of ruthless spell that swept aside Manchester City, Liverpool, Aston Villa and Arsenal in last season’s competition.  Three goals in 12 minutes turned the match on i...

Tottenham Hotspur 4 - 0 Copenhagen  Ten-man Tottenham delivered a stirring Champions League display as they swept aside Copenhagen to stay unbeaten in the competition Author | Greg S Stadium | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium  Brennan Johnson and Wilson Odobert put Spurs firmly in control before Johnson’s dismissal for a late challenge on Marcos Lopez briefly threatened to derail their momentum. Any fears were quickly silenced when Van de Ven produced a moment of extraordinary brilliance. Collecting the ball deep inside his own half, the defender surged past five Copenhagen players before slotting home with the composure of a seasoned striker – a goal destined to feature among the best of the season. It was a defiant response from a side booed off after their limp 1-0 defeat to Chelsea at the weekend. This time, Spurs’ supporters were on their feet, applauding as Joao Palhinha added a fourth after fine work from Cristian Romero. Tottenham could have had a fifth in stoppage time, but ...

Monaco 0 - 0 Tottenham Hotspur Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario delivered an outstanding display to help his side earn a crucial point against Monaco. Author | Greg S Stadium | Stade Louis-II Spurs corner The Italian, who has faced criticism this season, was pivotal as Spurs scraped a draw at Stade Louis II following a largely uninspiring performance. Vicario made four impressive first-half saves, three from former Arsenal forward Folarin Balogun, before producing another stop to deny Maghnes Akliouche. Spurs were forced into a resilient defensive performance against a Monaco side that had previously drawn 2-2 with Manchester City. They came close themselves when Micky van de Ven headed just over before half-time.  After the break, Vicario continued to shine, repelling further efforts from Akliouche and Balogun, and producing the standout moment of the match by brilliantly blocking a Jordan Teze header from point-blank range. Former Liverpool midfielder Takumi Minamin...

There were wins for Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea Horrendous weather conditions across the country didn't disrupt any of the action. Author |  Josh D Pictures from around the grounds The main talking points A rare home defeat for Leeds United Mohammed Kudus scored one and created another as Tottenham ended Leeds United’s year-long unbeaten home run in the league. Daniel Farke’s side had not lost on their own turf since early September 2024, when Burnley won there in the Championship. But Kudus was the difference on a sodden afternoon in Yorkshire, guiding Spurs back to winning ways after two draws in four days. Mathys Tel opened the scoring with his first goal of the season, latching on to Kudus’s through ball before unleashing a superb 20-yard strike that took a slight deflection off Pascal Struijk to wrongfoot goalkeeper Karl Darlow. As the rain began to fall heavily, Kudus restored Tottenham’s lead with a fine finish from the edge of the box, his low...

Bodø / Glimt 2 - 2 Tottennham Hotspur Tottenham avoided a major upset in the Champions League as they came from two goals down to salvage a draw against Norwegian underdogs Bodo/Glimt. Author |  Greg S Stadium | Aspmyra Stadion Spurs, who beat the same opponents home and away on their way to lifting the Europa League last season, were second best for long spells and went behind early in the second half when Jens Petter Hauge curled a fine effort into the far corner. The home side were soon in dreamland as Hauge once again stole the show, turning sharply away from Pedro Porro before drilling low into the bottom corner. Micky van de Ven gave Spurs a lifeline with a powerful header from Porro’s cross, and Destiny Udogie struck the bar with another header as the visitors pressed for a leveller.

Tottenham Hotspur 1 - 0 Villarreal Thomas Frank marked his Champions League bow with a win as Tottenham profited from a gift of a goal by Villarreal goalkeeper Luiz Junior. Author | Greg S Stadium | Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Spurs pre match display Just four minutes in, Junior inexplicably spilled Lucas Bergvall ’s cross into his own net, handing Spurs the perfect start in north London. It was a dream opening for Frank, managing in Europe’s premier competition for the first time since leaving Brentford , though his side were made to sweat before the interval. Micky van de Ven produced a vital block to deny former Arsenal winger Nicolas Pépé, while Tajon Buchanan squandered a clear chance when through on goal. Junior atoned in part with a sharp save from  Pape Matar Sarr  midway through the first half, keeping  Villarreal  in the contest.

Daniel Levy’s exit marks the end of an era at Tottenham Tottenham Hotspur’s executive chairman Daniel Levy, who has stepped aside after almost 25 years in charge, will remain one of the most divisive figures in the club’s history. Author | Greg S The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium   |  The ground Levy helped build He oversaw the creation of the world-class infrastructure Spurs now enjoy, from the £1bn stadium that ranks among the finest in world football to the training headquarters at Hotspur Way in Enfield . Yet for all these achievements, his tenure will always be judged by many through the lens of underachievement on the pitch. Although retaining a minority stake, Levy will no longer be involved in the day-to-day running of the club. His exit will be celebrated by a sizeable section of the fanbase, who long associated his chairmanship with stagnation as much as progress.

PSG 2 - 2 Tottenham Hotspur (PSG won 4-3 on penalties) Paris St-Germain staged a dramatic late comeback to win the UEFA Super Cup on penalties, denying Thomas Frank a first trophy as Tottenham manager.

Tottenham captain Son Heung-min says he will leave the club after 10 years. The South Korea forward signed for Spurs from Bayer Leverkusen in 2015 and has gone on to become one of the club’s most iconic players, scoring 173 goals in 454 appearances.  Author | Greg S Now 33, Son remains under contract with Tottenham until 2026 but is expected to complete a move to Los Angeles in the MLS in the coming weeks. He captained Spurs to Europa League glory in May , when they beat Manchester United in the final to end a 17-year wait for silverware.

Manchester United 0 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur Tottenham Hotspur ended 17 years of frustration as Brennan Johnson’s first-half goal secured a 1–0 victory over Manchester United in the Europa League final.  Author - Liam C Stadium -  San Mamés In a tense affair at Bilbao’s San Mamés Stadium, Johnson bundled home what proved to be the decisive goal just before the break. It capped off a cagey contest between two of the lowest-placed teams ever to meet in a European final. The win delivers on Ange Postecoglou’s promise of silverware in his second season at the helm. The under-pressure Australian has now joined club legends Bill Nicholson and Keith Burkinshaw in leading Spurs to continental glory. It is a remarkable achievement, even if it may not be enough to keep him in the job long term. With speculation surrounding his future, Postecoglou may still depart this summer, but he will do so a hero to the travelling 15,000 Spurs fans, and the many more unofficial supporters who flood...

This is the place for all the latest news from the Europa League final It's Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur. Who will save their season? Authors - Olivia T and Greg S Full-time | Manchester United 0 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur  Tottenham ended a 17-year trophy drought as Brennan Johnson's first-half goal secured a 1-0 win over Manchester United in the Europa League final.  The result delivers on Ange Postecoglou’s promise of silverware in his second season.  In contrast, United’s defeat compounds pressure on Ruben Amorim, whose side face Aston Villa in their final league game after a dismal campaign. Despite support from the club's hierarchy, Amorim's tactical choices are under scrutiny, particularly the decision to start Mason Mount over Alejandro Garnacho. With Bruno Fernandes largely anonymous, United offered little creativity and never looked likely to recover once they fell behind.

 Liverpool 5 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur Liverpool were crowned Premier League champions emphatically and drew level with Manchester United on 20 league titles, as Tottenham Hotspur were swept aside on a day of high emotion and celebration at Anfield. Author - William G Stadium - Anfield Arne Slot’s side needed only a point to secure the title, but Spurs briefly hinted at a surprise when former Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke nodded them into an early lead. That jolt served only to rouse Liverpool. The title was effectively secured before half-time, with three goals that sent an expectant Anfield into raptures at the culmination of Slot’s remarkable debut season following the departure of Jürgen Klopp. Luis Díaz levelled after 16 minutes, turning in Dominik Szoboszlai’s pass from close range.
