De Zerbi's Future at Tottenham Hinges on Board Relationship, Not Relegation

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi has emphasized that his decision to stay at the club next season will be based on his relationship with the board, rather than the team's relegation status. Despite the team's current struggles, De Zerbi expressed confidence in his ability to lead the team back to the Premier League's top six if they can avoid relegation. He stressed the importance of having a unified vision and approach, stating that 'everyone on the same page' is crucial for the team's success. De Zerbi's comments come ahead of his first home game against his former club Brighton, where a win could temporarily lift Spurs out of the relegation zone. The Italian manager has also been working to build a strong rapport with his players, acknowledging that he needs to get to know them better in order to achieve success. With several key players injured, including captain Romero, De Zerbi is looking for other players to step up and demonstrate leadership qualities.
