Tottenham are remaining tight-lipped over speculation they have targeted Italian national coach Giovanni Trapattoni as their new manager.

Trapattoni's agent claimed Spurs have held talks with the veteran coach who has guided Italy to this summer's European Championships.
A Tottenham spokesman said: "We are making no comment on any speculation regarding a managerial appointment."

Director of football David Pleat and first-team coach Chris Hughton have been in charge since Glenn Hoddle's dismissal last September.

Tottenham climbed out of the Premiership's bottom three on Wednesday night with a 4-1 win over Birmingham.

Trapattoni's agent Claudio Vigorelli was holding talks with FIGC, Italian football's ruling body on Thursday morning, fuelling speculation he may be negotiating his release.

Spurs would want Trapattoni to take control immediately, but could face problems in persuading him to ditch the Azzurri in the count down to Euro 2004.

Despite being one of Europe's most successful coaches, Trapattoni's salary with the FIGC is believed to be worth £700,000 a year.

He could double his money if Spurs offer him the equivalent of Glenn Hoddle's £1.5m a year salary.
The much-travelled Trapatton is the most successful coach in Italian football.

His winning pedigree includes seven Serie A titles, one European Cup, three Uefa Cups, the European Cup Winners' Cup, the European Super Cup and the World Club Cup with different clubs.

He also had a spell with Bayern Munich, during which time he won the Bundesliga title.

Trap's best days are behind him. The man is now just a relic and probably coming to collect his pension.

Methinks the gap in quality bw Arsenal and Tottenham is too great. In fact those two names should not be mentioned in the same breath.

Before you can start talking about catching up with Arsenal u guys should catch up with Charlton First then Chelsea (I don't think so).

Maybe next season you will be looking forwards to how you will "soon catch up with West Ham in the First Division"

For now you can dream on and if you have to
