In terms of who could take over next at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Julian Nagelsmann has emerged as the 3/1 favourite on SkyBet following his recent departure from Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich. He has also managed Hoffenheim and RB Leipzig in the past.

Their former boss Mauricio Pochettino then follows at 7/2. Luis Enrique is 8/1, Eintracht Frankfurt’s Oliver Glasner is 10/1 and Celtic’s Ange Postecoglou is 16/1 with Brentford’s Thomas Frank and Burnley’s Vincent Kompany at the same price.

After deciding to cut ties with Conte, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy has said: “We have 10 Premier League games remaining and we have a fight on our hands for a Champions League place. We all need to pull together. Everyone has to step up to ensure the highest possible finish for our Club and amazing, loyal supporters.”

They face Everton away this weekend following the end of the international break. Leeds United will be hoping that they can do them a favour against their relegation rivals at Goodison Park.
