AliousThe former Spurs midfielder, affectionately nicknamed “The Beast” by Tottenham supporters, has quickly become a key source of insight on Roberto De Zerbi following the Italian’s arrival.
Now 37, the Brazilian previously captained Benevento under De Zerbi, and he firmly believes the new Spurs boss is an ideal match for the club. He is also confident that the current Tottenham squad will enjoy working under him—while subtly fuelling speculation about a potential reunion.
Sandro drops strong hint over Tottenham return
Recent reports have suggested that Sandro could join De Zerbi’s coaching staff at Hotspur Way. When asked about the possibility earlier this week, he stopped short of denying it, instead teasing that fans would soon find out.
Adding to the intrigue, the former fan favourite recently shared an image of Tottenham’s crest at the club’s training ground on social media. Many supporters have taken this as a clear sign that his return may already be in motion.
Why Sandro could be a valuable addition
As De Zerbi begins his tenure, having someone on the coaching staff who truly understands the club’s culture could prove vital—and Sandro fits that role perfectly, especially given his existing relationship with the manager.
Beyond that, he remains one of the most beloved figures among Spurs fans in recent decades. His presence could help strengthen the connection between the squad, the coaching team, and the supporters.
With some sections of the fanbase still uncertain about De Zerbi’s appointment, bringing Sandro back into the fold could be a smart move to build unity and generate wider backing.
