Tottenham are closing in on the appointment of Nuno Espirito Santo as their new manager.
He has been on Tottenham's radar throughout what has become a tortuous process to find a replacement for Jose Mourinho, who was sacked in April.
Mauricio Pochettino and Antonio Conte were both heavily linked with the job.
They were then discarded as candidates before a farcical 48 hours earlier this month when Paolo Fonseca thought he was taking over, only to be dumped in favour of Gennaro Gattuso, who was quickly rejected when fans reacted badly to the existence of social media posts which brought the Italian's commitment to inclusivity into question.
