Spurs currently sit just four points clear of the drop zone, and it is hard to see where their next win is going to come from, with the Lilywhites still winless in the Premier League this calendar year.

Igor Tudor has been candid about the spate of problems affecting Tottenham, with the Croatian having very little time to put things right at N17.

A number of pundits have cautioned that Spurs are not immune from relegation, and fresh details have emerged about how dropping out of the Premier League could shape their hunt for a new manager.
Pochettino still open to Spurs return
According to Ben Jacobs of GiveMeSport, relegation would not necessarily end Tottenham’s hopes of reappointing Mauricio Pochettino. The report suggests the Argentine would consider a return to North London even if the club were playing in the Championship next season.
That said, Spurs would likely need to offer a significant financial package to lure the 54-year-old back. Pochettino is currently earning around £90,000 per week with the United States national team, having previously made close to £160,000 per week during his first spell at Tottenham.
Relegation could spark player departures

If Spurs were to go down, it is widely expected that several high-profile players would seek moves elsewhere this summer.
Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, James Maddison, Destiny Udogie, Dejan Kulusevski and Xavi Simons are among the names tipped to attract interest, with rival clubs likely to swoop should Tottenham find themselves outside the top flight.
