TottenhamA new chapter has started under Igor Tudor, with the temporary head coach implementing significant adjustments on his first official day in his new role.
On Friday, it was revealed that Tudor has committed to serving as Tottenham’s temporary head coach for the remainder of the season, following the dismissal of the previous coach.Thomas Frank.
Tudor traveled to north London during the weekend before starting his duties on Monday, when the team resumed training.
There have been some adjustments within the coaching team.
Assistant coaches Justin Cochrane and Chris Haslam have left, along with John Heitinga — who was only signed last month on a two-and-a-half-year contract, but whose tenure at the club lasted only 32 days.
It is assumed that the Dutchman did not want to be included in the new coaching setup led by Tudor.
Heitinga joined Tottenham on January 15, with Frank praising the former Ajax coach.
“John is a fantastic addition to our coaching team. His skills, demeanor, and integrity will bring significant benefit both during and outside of matches,” he stated.
As a former defender, that will be one of his key duties during training, and he possesses extensive coaching and leadership experience across all tiers of the sport, which will greatly assist us in our progression.
Nevertheless, Heitinga’s tenure at the club did not contribute to improving their dismal performance. Spurs did not secure a single victory in their five Premier League games — they lost three and drew two. However, they experienced success in the Champions League, defeating both Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt with a score of 2-0.
With Heitinga, Cochrane, and Haslam all departing, Tudor has recruited three new individuals for his support team.
A 47-year-old individual will receive assistance from assistant coach Ivan Javorcic, physical coach Riccardo Ragnacci, and goalkeeping coach Tomislav Rogic.
