Graham Potter Brighton
Brighton and Hove Albion head coach Graham Potter has once again played down speculation linking him with the Tottenham Hotspur job this summer. In fact, Potter does appear to tick all the boxes Levy wants in the next Tottenham manager as his search to appoint Jose Mourinho’s successor rumbles on.
Daniel Levy said: “We shall focus on the recruitment of a new Head Coach. We are acutely aware of the need to select someone whose values reflect those of our great Club and return to playing football with the style for which we are known – free-flowing, attacking and entertaining – whilst continuing to embrace our desire to see young players flourish from our Academy alongside experienced talent.”
However, Potter has insisted he has not been distracted by talk about his future and revealed he is “excited” about his Brighton side.
Graham Potter said: “I don’t pay too much attention to things that are out of my control, things that get written or speculation, there’s nothing I can do about it. I am focused on this job, trying to finish off this season as well as we can. I am excited by the team, excited by the club, excited by the group. I just focus on that.”
Potter’s stance could mean Spurs will need to look elsewhere in their search for a new manager. One name who won’t be heading to north London any time soon is Nuno Espirito Santo who will step down as Wolves boss at the end of the season.
