Journalist thinks Bundesliga manager could replace Conte at Tottenham

Christian Falk has claimed that Eintranct Frankfurt manager Oliver Glasner could be the man who could replace Antonio Conte at Tottenham Hotspur.

Spurs have a lot to think about in the coming weeks and months. Conte’s future is up in the air and there’s a growing feeling now that the Italian will walk away when his contract expires at the end of this season.

If that really is the case, Tottenham will need to start looking for a new manager, and Falk says Glasner could be the one.

The 28-year-old Austrian led Eintracht to Europa League triumph last season and even caused Tottenham a few problems in their 0-0 home draw in the Champions League group stage in October.

Perhaps, Daniel Levy saw that and Glasner caught his eye as the uncertainty over Conte’s future continues to grow. Falk thinks he could be the man to take charge of Spurs this summer.

He wrote for CaughtOffside on Substack: “Chelsea have knocked on Oliver Glasner’s door in the past but he was committed to the project at Frankfurt.

“Now, I heard Frankfurt have tried to arrange a new contract and discuss his future. Glasner told them that he needs time to make that decision, so you see, perhaps, he’s thinking of moving to another club – this could be Tottenham.

“I don’t think he’s made a decision yet, so let’s see. Hansi Flick was also close to joining Tottenham before he took the Germany job. Tottenham clearly have their eye on Bundesliga coaches, so perhaps Glasner could be their man.”
