Following the dismissal of head coach Igor Tudor, English football club "Tottenham" is preparing to take a rare step in the history of the Premier League.
Idman.Biz reports with reference to "The Telegraph" that the club's management is planning to appoint the team's current defender, Ben Davies, as interim head coach until the end of the season.
The club, currently in 17th place in the league table and facing the threat of relegation, is in a critical situation.
The nomination of the 32-year-old Welsh footballer for this responsible position is based on several serious factors. It is clear that the defender, who has been away from the field since January due to a severe ankle injury, will not play again this season, but his presence in the team since 2014 has made him the most experienced member of the squad. Davies, considered one of the main leaders of the dressing room, knows the problems within the club and the psychological state of the players better than any new coach.
Currently, Bruno Saltor is temporarily in charge of training, but the management must make a final decision before the important match against Sunderland on April 12. If Davies' appointment is formalized, he will take on the mission of keeping "Tottenham" in the Premier League without any coaching experience.
It should be noted that although the club's other targets include figures such as Sean Dyche and Roberto De Zerbi, the option of relying on internal resources is currently being considered as one of the most realistic candidates.
