Tottenham pushing to appoint Julian Nagelsmann
According to Sky Sports Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg, Tottenham Hotspur are really pushing to appoint Julian Nagelsmann as their manager as soon as possible.
The club has been linked with a number of managers over the past few weeks, but it seems that they are now focusing their efforts on one name in particular: Julian Nagelsmann. The German seems closer than ever to a move to the N17.
Nagelsmann is widely regarded as one of the most talented young managers in Europe. He impressed during his time at Hoffenheim, where he guided the club to their first-ever Champions League appearance, before moving on to RB Leipzig where he helped them reach the semi-finals of the competition.

The German coach’s success has not gone unnoticed, and he was appointed as the head coach of Bayern Munich last year. Despite winning the Bundesliga title in his first season in charge, he was unable to guide the club to Champions League glory and was abruptly sacked midway through this campaign.
It seems that Nagelsmann’s next move could be to Tottenham Hotspur, as the North London club continues their push to appoint him as their new manager. The German coach is reportedly keen to know how much power he will have over player recruitment.
The club have been criticised for their transfer strategy in recent years, with many fans feeling that they have failed to adequately replace key players who have left the club. The appointment of Nagelsmann would be a clear signal that the club is serious about addressing this issue.
However, negotiations with Nagelsmann have been stalling due to concerns over the club’s hierarchy and transfer strategy. The German coach wants to take his time before making a final decision, and talks are set to continue in the coming days.
Nagelsmann apparently sees Tottenham as a ‘big club with big potential’. He might just be the kind of manager that we need to return us back to the top of the Premier League and win us our first trophy in ages.

The appointment of Nagelsmann would be a major coup for the club, and would give them the kind of world-class manager that they need to compete at the highest level. Let’s hope we manage to convince him.
