A lot of Tottenham Hotspur fans have taken to Twitter to vent their anger at the latest claim to emerge in their search for a new permanent manager.
Spurs have been without a permanent manager since last month when Daniel Levy sacked their former boss Jose Mourinho.
In the absence of the 58-year-old Portuguese manager, former Spurs midfielder Ryan Mason has taken interim charge until the end of the season.
And according to The Athletic (via The View from The Lane podcast), the north London club are expected to announce their new manager at the end of May or the beginning of June.
Journalist Jack Pitt-Brooke said: “Steve Hitchen is drawing up a three, four, maximum of five-man shortlist and then they will move on to interviews.
“I would expect the announcement in late May or early June.”
Spurs fans flocked to the tweet from Daily Hotspur relaying the claim with many left fuming at Steve Hitchen’s involvement in the process.
“WHY IS HE DRAWING UP A LIST, HE IS A CLOWN”
Will Spurs appoint a manager before the Euros?
Yes
No
Going by the reaction of these Spurs fans it is apparent they are far from impressed by Hitchen being given the responsibility of coming up with the shortlist of potential candidates to take the reins at the north London club on a permanent basis.
