Tottenham next permanent manager odds: Who are the favourites to replace Antonio Conte at Spurs?

Antonio Conte is no longer manager of Tottenham after leaving the club by mutual consent.

The Italian lasted just 16 months in charge of the north London side and departs having failed to replicate the success he enjoyed at their cross-city rivals Chelsea.

Conte recently branded his players "selfish" in an astonishing press conference following their 3-3 draw with Southampton.

It seemed inevitable that Conte would leave the club after his outburst, and so it proved when Tottenham announced his departure on Sunday.

"We have 10 Premier League games remaining and we have a fight on our hands for a Champions League place," chairman Daniel Levy said.

"We all need to pull together. Everyone has to step up to ensure the highest possible finish for our club and amazing, loyal supporters."

Conte's former assistant Cristian Stellini has been named interim head coach for the remainder of the campaign, with former Spurs midfielder Ryan Mason appointed as his deputy.

Attention has now turned to who might replace Conte permanently at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Here are the early frontrunners for the job.

Julian Nagelsmann – 3/1

According to Sky Bet, former Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann is most likely to be in charge of Tottenham at the start of the 2023-24 season.

Nagelsmann was sacked by Bayern last week and replaced with former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel, in a move that surprised many.

Bayern are just one point behind Bundesliga leaders Borussia Dortmund and are through to the last eight of the Champions League, having beaten PSG in the previous round after winning all six of their group games.

According to reports, Levy is keen to hold talks with Nagelsmann about the Tottenham job, while the German is said to be interested in a swift return to management.

Mauricio Pochettino – 7/2

It will come as no surprise that former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is among the favourites for the vacant role.

The Argentine worked wonders during his five-year spell in charge of Spurs, leading them to a second-place finish in the Premier League in the 2016-17 season before later reaching the Champions League final in 2019, where they lost to Liverpool.

He was sacked less than six months later with Tottenham struggling in the league and would go on to join Paris Saint-Germain.

Pochettino would last just 18 months at the Parc des Princes before he was sacked, despite winning the Ligue 1 title in his second season.

He was strongly linked with Manchester United after Ole Gunnar Solskjaer stepped down last season but the Old Trafford club instead opted to appoint Erik ten Hag as the Norwegian's permanent replacement.

Luis Enrique – 8/1

Former Barcelona and Spain manager Luis Enrique is third favourite to become the next Tottenham boss.

Like Pochettino, he was linked with Manchester United following Solskjaer's departure.

Enrique won La Liga twice and the Champions League once during his time in charge of Barcelona, in addition to three Copa del Rey trophies.

He has been without a role since stepping down as Spain manager following their shock defeat to Morocco at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
