New Tottenham Hotspur manager Roberto De Zerbi has ignited hope among supporters by declaring his long-term ambition to restore the club to the Premier League’s summit despite their recent drop into the relegation zone.
Roberto De Zerbi has pledged to bring ambition back to Tottenham following the club’s slide into the bottom three.
Taking over a side reeling from a 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest, the Italian tactician is tasked with surviving a dire injury crisis.
“In my plan for sure there is the idea to stay for a long time… to put Tottenham to stay in the first position,” De Zerbi stated.
The manager’s arrival marks a shift from the pragmatic approach of predecessor Thomas Frank.
While the squad faces significant absences on the right flank, De Zerbi’s focus remains on high-level competitiveness and trophy hunting.
Addressing the club’s potential, he noted the goal is “to put Tottenham to stay in the first position in the Premier League because there are all parts to reach that level.”
