Tottenham Hotspur to hold talks with Louis van Gaal before World Cup?

The Dutch FA reportedly allow Louis van Gaal to hold talks with Tottenham Hotspur regarding a possible switch to White Hart Lane.

Netherlands boss Louis van Gaal is reportedly permitted to hold talks with Tottenham Hotspur ahead of this summer's World Cup in Brazil regarding a potential move to White Hart Lane.

The 62-year-old has been tipped to replace Tim Sherwood, who is expected to step down from his role with the first team after taking over from Andre Villas-Boas in December.

According to The Telegraph, Spurs will need to agree a deal with Van Gaal by May 7 after he was given the green light by the Dutch FA to decide on his next move.

The nation's World Cup squad will meet next month, which signals that any agreement with Tottenham will need to be struck beforehand.

Van Gaal will leave his role with the Netherlands after this summer's tournament and be replaced by Guus Hiddink.
