# Tottenham Hotspur: Lilywhites source relays whispers from within the club

**Speaking to[The Boy Hotspur](https://theboyhotspur.com/source-close-to-club-speculation-within-club-as-to-whom-spurs-might-appoint-caretaker-manager/), a Tottenham source close to the club has allegedly relayed that those within Spurs are speculating and theorising as to who might be the caretaker manager after Jose Mourinho – with the whispers happening ‘outside of \[Daniel\] Levy’s office’.**

### Tottenham source shares behind the scenes claim

Indeed, as per this report, a Lilywhites source explains that Spurs are in a ‘bit of a muddle’ behind the scenes, with Levy apparently finding increasing ‘issues’ and ‘difficulties’ with Mourinho – mainly because the Portuguese gaffer is failing to be an ambassador for the brand.

Star striker Harry Kane, however, is still a staunch advocate of the current boss and his opinion carries a lot of weight within the club – and the Tottenham chairman understands his importance in north London.

The Spurs source, as a result, shares that the club are slightly split behind the scenes – and this Lilywhites insider, speaking to the Boy Hotspur, even claims there is speculation within Tottenham as to who might be the caretaker.

### Transfer Tavern take

This theorising is allegedly happening away from Levy’s office as Tottenham continue to be linked with possible replacements for Mourinho.

The likes of [Brendan Rodgers and Julian Nagelsmann](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/julian-nagelsmann-offered-tottenham-brendan-23553018) have been reported in the media as coaches the club are keeping close eye on, but only time will tell whether Tottenham do in fact part company with the once-special one.
