Andre Villas-Boas is in line to be unveiled as the next Tottenham Hotspur manager, within the coming week.
Tottenham Hotspur have recently been headlining all the major football websites, tabloids and magazines. Ever since Harry Redknapp was released by the North London club, a number of managers had been linked with Tottenham, with David Moyes, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Martinez-c24468,
Laurent Blanc and Rafa Benitez the most prominent candidates.
A few weeks earlier, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes seemed like the primary candidate for club chairman Daniel Levy’s plans for the coming season. However, Tottenham have reportedly approached Andre Villas-Boas with their managerial proposal and are said to be waiting on the
Portuguese manager’s decision.

Despite having failed at Chelsea, where his managerial stint came to an end after 8 months, Levy remains convinced that AVB has learned from his mistakes and will be a hit at Tottenham. He feels this way, given the club’s current crop of players suiting
AVB’s tactical game play and football mentality. AVB tried playing a high back line at Chelsea, but the plan backfired since http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 were largely an ageing team that lacked the pace to successfully play a high defensive line. Tottenham have a number of strengths,
with pace being just one of the many qualities they boast of.
Spurs most influential player, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gareth-Bale-c14422 has however signed a new contract that ties him with the club for
four more years. Tottenham have also been linked Gylfi Sigurdsson, who was on loan at Swansea City last season, from Hoffenheim and are reportedly in talks with Ajax and Belgian defender http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jan-Vertonghen-c17814. Though the latter seems to have stalled, Tottenham are
still in the market to add to their squad as they prepare for next season.
With the possibility of new players coming in, AVB will probably relish this new challenge. Tottenham are awaiting confirmation from Andre Villas-Boas about a decision regarding their proposal. They are expected to announce his appointment as new Tottenham
manager and Harry Redknapp's replacement later this week.
