Report: Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino to recommend old friend Nestor Lorenzo to Sheffield Wednesday

English Championship outfit Sheffield Wednesday are in need of a new manager after Newcastle United snapped up Steve Bruce, and Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino is keen to lend them a helping hand.

According to The Sun, the Spurs chief will recommend former Colombia assistant coach and his Argentinian pal, Nestor Lorenz, to Wednesday.

Owls owner Dejphon Chansiri is keen on a domestic manager with experience, but he is open to foreign options, and Pochettino will put in a word to him about his English-speaking friend.

Wednesday are threatening to take Newcastle to court as they argue Bruce’s full compensation wasn’t paid after him and his two assistants -Steve Agnew and Stephen Clemence – walked away from their contracts.
