Nuno Espirito Santo is not being considered by Tottenham Hotspur as a candidate to become their next boss, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Nuno Espirito Santo is reportedly not being considered by Tottenham Hotspur as a candidate to become the North London club's next head coach.

The Portuguese will stand down as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers following Sunday's Premier League clash with Manchester United at Molineux.

Nuno was strongly linked with the Tottenham job earlier this season, while Arsenal were also thought to be interested during a period of difficulty for head coach Mikel Arteta.

The 47-year-old will be available this summer, but according to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, he is not a candidate to become Spurs' next boss.

Romano claims that Tottenham are 'looking for a different kind of manager' but are likely to miss out on Hansi Flick, who is expected to take the Germany position when he leaves Bayern Munich.

The North London club are also still believed to be interested in Leicester City's Brendan Rodgers.
