Tottenham considering shock Roberto De Zerbi sack just FIVE games into season

Spurs are worried after five league games without a win, and the board is said to be weighing a change despite heavy summer spending.

  • Following a 3-2 defeat to Aston Villa last Saturday, Tottenham Hotspur is considering dismissing manager Roberto De Zerbi after five Premier League games without a win despite significant summer spending.
  • Hired in March to reverse relegation after consecutive 17th-place finishes, De Zerbi was given authority to oversee ten new signings and reshape the squad over the summer.
  • After Saturday's loss, De Zerbi called his squad the most "fragile" team in his 14-year coaching career, stating "I do not have all the answers" regarding defensive struggles.

  • Tottenham faces Manchester United in October when the Premier League resumes, a fixture described as pivotal for both dugouts, while player Andy Robertson stressed moving past previous struggles.
