Former Manchester United and Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is a strong contender to replace Mauricio Pochettino as Tottenham manager.
Pochettino, 47, was sacked as Spurs boss on Tuesday after five years in charge of the north London club.
The Argentine led Spurs to the Champions League final last season, where they lost to Liverpool.
Portuguese Mourinho has been out of work since being sacked by United in December 2018.
Ex-Chelsea, Porto, Real Madrid and Inter Milan manager Mourinho has turned down a number of job opportunities, including in China, Spain and Portugal, since leaving Old Trafford.
There have been reports of a falling out between Pochettino and chairman Daniel Levy, but the decision was taken purely because of the poor results over a number of months, starting last February.
Bournemouth's Eddie Howe, RB Leipzig's Julian Nagelsmann and free agent Massimiliano Allegri, who left Juventus at the end of last season, have all been linked with the job. (BBC)
