  • Igor Tudor has left Tottenham Hotspur by mutual consent after just 44 days in charge, as the club faces a serious threat of relegation from the Premier League.
  • His departure follows a dismal 3-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest, leaving Spurs only one point above the relegation zone with seven matches remaining.
  • Tottenham are currently on their longest winless run in 91 years, having failed to secure a Premier League victory in their last 13 games.
