However, Football Insider’s update on Wednesday quashed the enthusiasm and excitement of some Spurs fans by suggesting that the North London club’s hierarchy are not hopeful that the German would accept the job.
The publication explained that some at Tottenham are concerned that Nagelsman might be using the club’s interest as leverage to pursue other jobs.
