Tottenham Agree Interim Deal With Igor Tudor After Sacking Thomas Frank

Igor Tudor
February 2026

Spurs verbally agreed an end-of-season appointment with a short-term mandate to stabilise results, while keeping the summer manager search open by omitting any option to make the role permanent.

The move follows prolonged attacking anemia, fragile set-piece defending, and collapsing second halves. Successor decision is imminent. Recruitment left thin finishing and creativity. Out-of-possession distances grew, exposing the back line; restarts cost goals. Without reliable ball progression, Wolves ceded territory and momentum. Immediate fixes: compact block, prioritize high-value shots, specialist set-piece coaching, and a pragmatic interim who stabilizes results before January reinforcements.
