Tottenham Keep Igor Tudor in Charge for Atletico Second Leg and Forest Clash

A resilient draw at Liverpool earned the interim coach short-term backing.

Overview

  • The club confirmed Tudor will take Tuesday's pre‑match press conference and lead the Champions League second leg, with Spurs trailing Atletico Madrid 5-2 on aggregate.
  • His remit also covers Sunday's home match against Nottingham Forest, a fixture viewed inside the club as pivotal to their Premier League safety push.
  • The 1-1 draw at Anfield, Tottenham's first point under Tudor despite 12 absentees and a threadbare bench, reassured decision‑makers after four straight defeats.
  • Reporting indicates his position could still be reviewed during the international break if results worsen, with preferred permanent candidates understood to be more attainable in the summer.
  • Selection prospects have improved with Destiny Udogie nearing fitness and potential returns for Cristian Romero, João Palhinha, Micky van de Ven and Conor Gallagher, and a supporters' group has paused planned protests before Forest to promote unity.
