Sean Dyche and Roberto De Zerbi the favourites ahead of Marco Silva

Tottenham are searching for their third manager of the season after parting ways with Igor Tudor.

Spurs announced on Sunday that Tudor had left by mutual contest and the club plan to appoint a new head coach in the coming days, so someone is in place for when the players return from international duty next week.

That would give the new manager around 10 days to prepare for their next game away at Sunderland on April 12.

Spurs are deep in relegation trouble after their gamble on Tudor backfired and has resulted in just one point out of a possible 15 in the Premier League.

Roberto De Zerbi and Sean Dyche are most heavily tipped by the bookmakers to be the man Spurs turn too, with odds cut on Marco Silva .

De Zerbi and Mauricio Pochettino are the most established names mentioned, but neither is expected to be interested or available before the end of the season.

One former Tottenham man who has confirmed his eagerness for the role is Harry Redknapp, but having been out of work for nine years, it would be a bold move to hand him the reins.
