Tottenham Hotspur bosses could face a player revolt if they appoint Andre Villas-Boas as the club's new manager.
The 34-year-old is the bookmakers' favourite to replace Harry Redknapp at White Hart Lane and has reportedly held talks regarding the role.
Villas-Boas was sacked by Chelsea in March after a run of poor form and amid reports that his players had lost respect for him.
Some of Spurs' senior players are already upset because of Redknapp's departure and, after speaking to friends within the Chelsea squad, are far from impressed by the prospect of being led by Villas-Boas, according to The Sun.
Bookmakers Skybet are currently offering odds of 8/15 on Villas-Boas becoming the next permanent manager of Tottenham.
