Spurs are now outsiders in the race for a Champions League place
Tottenham are reportedly considering sacking acting head coach Cristian Stellini after Sunday's hammering by Newcastle saw the season take yet another turn for the worse.
Reports claim Stellini may be replaced before Thursday's visit of Manchester United having failed to bring about an upturn in results.
The 48-year-old was part of Antonio Conte's backroom staff at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and stepped into the top job on a temporary basis when his fellow Italian was sacked last month.
Spurs are now outsiders in the race for a Champions League place and sit six points adrift of United despite playing two more games.
Stellini, in his first managerial role, has overseen just one win in his four games in charge - a 2-1 victory over Brighton.
