Tottenham Hotspur's UEFA Europa League campaign came to an abrupt end, and there is a lot of suspense over the retention of manager Mauricio Pochettino. According to the British media, Tottenham has quietly started the process of looking for a new manager, targeting the just-departed Spanish national team coach Anriki. If this rumor is true, the tactical style of Tottenham may have a subversive change, from the previous focus on defensive counterattack to emphasize the ball control and delivery.
The Times further revealed that Mauricio Pochettino's contract with Tottenham is set to end at the end of this season, and although he is entitled to an automatic one-year extension, neither side seems to have any intention of triggering the renewal mechanism. Pochettino is rumored to be interested in returning to coaching in Serie A, and Tottenham have simultaneously opened a global search for a new manager.
Aniki, who left the team after the World Cup, has become one of the favorites to lead the Tottenham Hotspur team. Tottenham Hotspur executives are optimistic that he will be able to help the team to shift to attacking soccer, while helping young players to grow quickly, and there is even news that An Liji is expected to persuade the core of the team, Haliqani, to continue to stay in the team after he takes office.
Currently unemployed, Anriki has shown great interest in coaching a top Premier League team and is not averse to making contact with Tottenham. However, a problem that cannot be ignored is that under Pochettino's leadership, Tottenham's possession rate is often below 50%, while Anriki's tactical philosophy emphasizes possession, which is in stark contrast to Tottenham's existing style of play, and it is still unknown whether the players can adapt to such a style.
