Tottenham Hotspur have sacked manager Igor Tudor after just 44 days in charge, with the club struggling to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Tudor managed the team for seven games, securing only one point from his five league matches.The final straw came with last Sunday's 3-0 home defeat by Nottingham Forest, which left Tottenham one point and one place above the bottom three. A potential demotion to the Championship would be catastrophic for the club's prestige and revenues.Tudor's departure comes amid a backdrop of human tragedy, with the manager informed of the death of his father, Mario, after the Forest game. The club aimed to handle the situation with sensitivity towards the Croatian manager.Tudor's brief tenure included two Champions League matches against Atlético Madrid, with Tottenham ultimately losing 7-5 on aggregate. His time at Spurs began with a difficult period, including league defeats to Arsenal, Fulham, and Crystal Palace.The club has gone 13 league games without a win, their worst run since 1934-35 when they were relegated from the old Division One. Tudor's approach and tactics were questioned, particularly his decision to substitute goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky after just 17 minutes in the first leg against Atlético Madrid.Tudor had been tasked with bringing organisation, intensity, and competitive edge to the squad, but ultimately failed to achieve this. The club is now searching for a new manager, with Bruno Salter set to take training in the interim.
