Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has emerged as a serious contender to take over at Tottenham.
The Australian has been extremely impressive in the Scottish Premiership over the past two seasons.
Per The Mail, Spurs viewed Feyenoord boss Arne Slot as the first choice candidate.
However, his arrival may no longer be an option, after he announced on Thursday his intention to stay at the Dutch club.
Spurs will now aim to convince Postecoglou that he is better off swapping Celtic for North London.
Another possible candidate may be Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui, given he is unhappy with their lack of summer transfer funds.
