Tottenham appoint Roberto De Zerbi as new head coach on five-year deal to lead Spurs in Premier League and European competitions
Tottenham Hotspur have appointed Italian tactician Roberto De Zerbi as their new head coach, handing him a five-year contract to lead the club in the Premier League and European competitions.
Tottenham Hotspur confirmed the appointment following reports from football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who announced that De Zerbi had accepted the role with immediate effect.
The Italian coach is expected to take charge immediately as Spurs look to stabilise a turbulent season and rebuild their competitive edge both domestically and in Europe.
Romano stated that the agreement is now complete, describing the move as a “here we go” moment, signalling final confirmation of the deal.
De Zerbi’s arrival follows Tottenham’s decision to part ways with Igor Tudor after a difficult spell in charge, marking another significant managerial shift at the North London club.
The club is expected to back the new head coach in the transfer market as he prepares to reshape the squad in line with his tactical philosophy.
Tottenham are now hoping the appointment will bring long-term stability and renewed ambition after a challenging campaign.
