Tottenham confirm appointment of Roberto De Zerbi as new manager
- On Tuesday, Tottenham Hotspur reached an agreement with Roberto De Zerbi to become their new head coach on a five-year contract following days of negotiations.
- The club moved for De Zerbi after dismissing interim manager Igor Tudor on Sunday following a 44-day tenure, as Spurs sit 17th in the Premier League.
- Fan groups including Women of the Lane and the Proud Lilywhites urged the club to reject De Zerbi on Friday, citing his past defense of Mason Greenwood while managing Marseille.
- To secure the Italian coach amid a perilous season, Tottenham reportedly included a release clause in his deal should the club face relegation, giving him around 10 days to prepare for Sunderland on April 12.
- De Zerbi's primary priority is ensuring Spurs remain in the top flight, having joined a team that won only two of its last 22 league fixtures with his first home match against Brighton.
