Tottenham to rival Chelsea for treble-winning Spanish tactician

Tottenham to rival Chelsea for the appointment of Luis Enrique

According to Evening Standard, Tottenham Hotspur are set to rival Chelsea for Luis Enrique as both clubs look to appoint a new permanent manager soon.

Chelsea sacked Graham Potter two weeks ago and hired Frank Lampard on an interim basis till the end of this season. The idea behind that was them having time to finalise the procedure to appoint the permanent manager.

Spurs, on the other hand, sacked Antonio Conte during the March international break and appointed his number two Cristian Stellini for the rest of this season. They are also searching for a new permanent manager.

Chelsea held talks with Enrique in London to discuss the possibility of taking over the role. The report reveals that the London rivals are set to interview the Spaniard in the coming days.

Both clubs could head-to-head for the appointment of Julian Nagelsmann as well. The German is out of a job now after getting sacked by Bayern Munich days before Conte was.

The Times reported that Chelsea’s co-sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart had the first official talks with Nagelsmann on Thursday.

From the Blues’ viewpoint, it is an interesting time because the interim appointment of Lampard hasn’t worked out. The team has lost all three games under him and nothing has changed since Potter was given the hook.

The club needs to make the right decision regarding the next manager, failing to do so could have long-term ramifications given how much they have spent in the transfer market in the last two windows.

Enrique has the experience and know-how of winning big trophies and playing the big games with Barcelona and Spain. Is he tactically better than Nagelsmann? It is a tight one because the German is very good at his job and was unfairly sacked by Bayern.
