Croatia boss Slaven Bilic is the man Tottenham's players want to succeed Juande Ramos, it has been revealed.

The Mail on Sunday says his name is being openly discussed among the unsettled squad and there is strong support for Bilic's positive management style.

Tottenham's two Croatia players, Luka Modric and Vedran Corluka, have been quizzed by team-mates over the possibility of their countryman becoming the club's would-be rescuer and while Bilic, who played here with West Ham and Everton, has previously rebuffed approaches to manage Manchester City and the Hammers, he would find the chance to manage two of his national team's star players in the Premier League irresistible.
