Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly identified Brendan Rodgers and Julian Nagelsmann as potential alternatives to Jose Mourinho.

Spurs have lost five of their last six matches in all competitions, a run of results which has heaped the pressure on the opinion-dividing Portuguese.

The North London outfit have also won just four of their most recent 14 fixtures in the Premier League, leaving the club in ninth position in the standings.

While no change in the dugout is imminent, the Daily Mail claims that club officials are contemplating whether to make approaches for Rodgers and Nagelsmann.

Leicester are now regarded as challengers for the Champions League under Rodgers, the Foxes currently occupying third spot in the Premier League behind Manchester City and Manchester United.

Nagelsmann's RB Leipzig are five points adrift of Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, although the German is frequently being linked with a move to a bigger club.
