Dawson not convinced Stellini will be appointed as permanent Spurs manager
Former Tottenham defender Michael Dawson has expressed his doubts about Cristian Stellini being named as Spurs’ permanent manager. Dawson believes the current interim coach’s task of securing Champions League football for the team will be challenging but is uncertain whether this would be enough to secure his place as manager for the long term. “If he goes and wins ten out of ten, which is certainly a tough ask, gets them into the Champions League and then maybe that’s something they will look at,” Dawson told Sky Sports.
