Tottenham Hotspur's internal divisions are spiraling out of control. Just a half year after the ace and mental support Son Heung-min (34), who left for Los Angeles FC, the head coach, who was asked to stay following the replacement of the coach due to poor performance, left the team 32 days after his appointment.

British media 'Daily Mail' reported on the 25th (Korea Standard Time) that "Haitinga, who was coach Thomas Frank's head coach, left North London despite the club's desperate appeal to stay."

According to reports, Coach Hatinga, who previously assisted Arne Slot, joined Tottenham under Frank in January, but resigned 32 days after taking office.

Within about a month, Coach Hatinga's closest aide exposed the situation at the time. Coach Hatinga's agent Rob Jansen said on the podcast: "Tottenham have earnestly asked Hatinga to stay in the team. "With all the Scandinavian coaches who came with Frank having left, it was quite surprising to ask Coach Hatinga, who has only been in charge for three weeks, to fill the contract period," he said.

However, Coach Hatinga immediately rejected the club's request. Under the new coach Igor Tudor, it was judged that there was no future. Jansen said, "Coach Headinga decided when he saw Tudor take over as interim head coach for three to four months. With coach Tudor leading the division, it was considered meaningless to remain. "I thought it was right to leave now because it is obvious that the coach team will be replaced again when the official coach comes later," he explained.

Even Coach Hatinga reportedly considered taking over the temporary head coach himself shortly after Frank's dismissal. However, Tottenham's owner, the Lewis family and management chose Tudor, a proven firefighter, instead of an inexperienced coach. Jansen criticized this as "the management made a safe choice to protect its image."

Tottenham, which is on the verge of relegation, urgently appointed Tudor, who has experience as a temporary head coach. Tudor joined Tottenham with his division, including head coach Ivan Javorcic, physical coach Ricardo Ragnac and goalkeeper coach Tomislav Rogic.

The debut was disastrous. Tudor was beaten 1-4 by Arsenal in the North London derby, his first match since taking office. Tottenham lost to Arsenal twice this season, losing 1-4.

It is a sharp decline in just six months after Son Heung-min left. Tottenham suffered a humiliating defeat in the rival match immediately after the manager's replacement.

In addition, Coach Hatinga reportedly received a huge amount of money from Tottenham during his resignation. The Daily Mail added, "Janssen pointed to the inexperience of the club's management, suggesting that Hatinga collected a significant amount of penalties in the early resignation process."
