Tottenham will compete with Chelsea for the vacant managerial position by interviewing Luis Enrique.
Tottenham are in search for a new manager after ousting Antonio Conte on March 26 and putting his assistant, Cristian Stellini, in charge until the end of the season. That decision occurred just a week before Chelsea fired Graham Potter and appointed Frank Lampard as interim manager until the conclusion of the season.
Because of these changes, Tottenham and Chelsea are in limbo until the conclusion of the season, and they are both looking for a new manager in the same market. Enrique is a target for both clubs after stepping down as Spain manager following the World Cup.
According to the Telegraph, Spurs intend to contact Enrique about their open management role. Face-to-face conversations were place earlier this month between the 47-year-old and Chelsea, with Nagelsmann having his own opportunity to express his thoughts in London last Thursday.

what will Luis Enrique Do?
Both clubs’ need to guarantee the next manager coming in is the correct one made a mid-season permanent appointment appear implausible. There would also have been major difficulty in bringing Nagelsmann in because any team willing to welcome him before the end of the season would have had to pay a compensation fee to Bayern.
The young German coach is also thought to want to take a little vacation from the game to think about what went wrong in Germany. Meanwhile, according to Fabrizio Romano, Enrique disagreed with the Spaniard following an instant managerial return.
“What I can say for sure is that Luis Enrique wants to return as soon as possible after the World Cup, and he’d love to be back at work in the next months, he doesn’t want to stop,” the Italian journalist stated.
Previously, Enrique stated his desire to manage in England in a 2013 interview with FourFourTwo: “I’d like to manage England at some point,” he added. “My wife would not like the weather because she is from Barcelona and enjoys the sun.”
