According to Football Insider, Marco Silva might be open to the idea of joining Tottenham if the North Londoners were to make an offer. The Portuguese tactician has a release clause in his Fulkham contract which could make any move straightforward for Spurs as they continue to consider Ange Postecoglopu’s future.
Tottenham have found themselves in a strange situation with their managerial issue once again when they are excelling in a cup competition. Spurs are on course to reach the UEFA Europa League final following their first-leg success against Bodo/Glimt. Manchester United are the other team considered favourites to feature against the North Londoners in Bilbao following their success against Athletic Club.
Winning the Europa League would be monumental for Tottenham as it would end their well-documented trophy drought. Moreover, it could make the club think over their stance on manager Ange Postecoglou with suggestions that the Australian could be sacked irrespective of their success in the competition.
Postecoglou certainly has a case to stay put if Spurs do win the Europa League. However, the team’s Premier League form has been the biggest talking point over his future. In any case, Tottenham are already considering a few options to replace the Australian, including Andoni Iraola, Marco Silva, and Thomas Frank, while names like Carlo Ancelotti were also suggested by some reports.
Iraola might stay at Bournemouth, who are confident of keeping him amid reports there could be a new contract on the table. Reports stated Fulham were also keen to offer Silva a new deal, although the story suggests the new agreement has not arrived, which does fuel speculation over the 47-year-old manager’s future at Craven Cottage.
Silva has been on Tottenham’s radar as one of the priority names to replace Postecoglou. The report reveals that the 47-year-old manager may have a release clause in his deal that originally expires in 2026. Hence, any deal for Spurs might be straightforward if they are willing to pay the exit clause for the Portuguese boss.
Silva could be open to the idea of managing Tottenham if an offer came through from the north Londoners. Hence, there seems like a very big chance for Spurs to get the Portuguese tactician at the helm as a replacement for Postecoglou.
