Roberto De Zerbi: Spurs Fans' Anger Grows over Italian's Appointment
De Zerbi, offered a five-year deal, is favored to manage Spurs immediately despite fan backlash over his past support for Mason Greenwood.
- On Monday, reports from Italy indicated Roberto De Zerbi is in advanced talks to become Tottenham Hotspur's new head coach following Igor Tudor's departure on Sunday.
- Tottenham refocused on De Zerbi after Tudor's 44-day tenure ended with five defeats in seven matches, leaving the club facing a realistic threat of relegation since 1977.
- Three supporters groups—Proud Lilywhites, Women of the Lane, and Spurs Reach—launched a "No to De Zerbi" campaign on Friday, citing his past defense of Mason Greenwood at Marseille.

- With eight cup finals left to save their season, Tottenham views the Italian manager as their final option to avoid what would be the club's most humiliating relegation in Premier League history.
