Spurs identify Nagelsmann ally as new sporting director

Tottenham have nothing standing in their way to secure key managerial target Julian Naglesmann this summer.

The German was thought to be on the radar of Chelsea to replace Graham Potter.

However, he is not in the running for that job, as Mauricio Pochettino will likely take charge at the Blues.

Per The Mail, Spurs have a clear run at Nagelsmann, who was fired by Bayern Munich earlier this year.

Now it appears that Johannes Spors is emerging as an option for the club's sporting director role.

Since Spors, a former RB Leipzig chief scout, has a prior relationship with Naglesmann, it may be seen as a way to lure the latter to the club.
