Spurs will face Bodo/Glimt in the semi-finals but currently sit all the way down in 16th in the Premier League with just 37 points from their 33 games.

According to The Sun, Parker, 44, who just earned promotion back to the Premier League with Burnley, has plenty of admirers amongst the Tottenham hierarchy.

It’s understood Tottenham are looking to hire a manager who has a preference to play high-intensity, progressive football, while utilising young players.

Parker spent a year as the U18s manager at Spurs before leaving to take his first senior managerial role with Fulham back in 2019.
