Son Heung-min OUT → After 7 months of catastrophe, 'two promising coaches have been replaced'... '0 wins in 2026' Tottenham EPL relegation 'super-power'

Tottenham Hotspur, which has been repeatedly falling after Son Heung-min (34, LAFC), is heading for a catastrophe of being replaced twice as the head coach in a season that is unprecedented. Following the poor performance of Thomas Frank, who had been at the helm of Tottenham since this season, Igor Tudor, who was deployed as a crisis firefighter, was on the verge of being kicked out a month after taking office.

Sports media Fox Sports reported on the 25th (Korea Standard Time) that "Tottenham has contacted all Bundesliga coaches as a successor to Tudor and has begun a full-fledged search for the next head coach."

According to the media, Tottenham's leadership has already pointed to Adolf Whitter, who is currently unemployed, as a strong candidate and is already negotiating in detail.

It's an all-time downfall. After Son Heung-min left for the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS), Tottenham does not break the noise inside and outside the stadium. Coach Frank was replaced due to poor performance and failure to take control of the team, and even interim coach Tudor, who was brought as a firefighter, had the worst performance with one draw and four losses in the English Premier League (EPL).

The decisive blow was against Nottingham Forest. Tottenham was completely defeated 0-3 at home in the 31st round against Nottingham on the 22nd. With this defeat, Tottenham continued its all-time slump, recording five draws and eight losses in 13 league games in 2026.

Currently, Tottenham is barely in the remaining Maginot line, falling to 17th place in the league with 30 points (7 wins, 9 draws and 15 losses). It is only one point away from West Ham United (29 points), which is ranked 18th in the relegation zone.

It is even worse than teams that have been pushed to the EPL relegation zone. West Ham United, ranked 18th, Burnley, ranked 19th, and Wolverhampton Wanderers all recorded four EPL wins, one win and three wins in 2026.

Tudor, who took the helm as Thomas Frank's successor in February, won only one point in five league games since taking office. Even the game against Nottingham was consistent with a lackluster performance. On this day, Tottenham's spectators left the stadium even before the end of the game when the team allowed a net goal.

He seems to have already abandoned his expectations for coach Tudor in the region. British media 'BBC' said, "How can Tudor survive Tottenham? Tottenham's EPL journey, which suffered a crushing defeat by Nottingham, a competitor in the competition, is on the verge of ending."

Son Heung-min, who was the team's mental pillar and troubleshooter until last season, has been clearly on the decline since he left for the U.S. stage. Tottenham's discipline had already collapsed disastrously since former coach Thomas Frank's tenure in December last year.

Signs of internal division were revealed both on and off the field. England's 'Sportsbible' highlighted the team's crisis by reporting on the situation immediately after Tottenham's defeat against Chelsea. According to reports, Tottenham defenders Van der Penn and Jed Spence went straight to the locker room after the game, turning a blind eye to the applause of their fans who cheered for them.

Tudor, interim coach, has already made bombshell remarks against Tottenham. According to the 'BBC', soon after Tottenham's appointment, Tudor poured out relentless vitriol at the team, saying, "The offense is not at all capable of scoring a goal, and the defense lacks even the minimum will."

Even the interim coach Tudor, who was brought in after Frank's replacement, failed. It is a disastrous reality for Tottenham, which is set to humiliate two managers in one season alone after Son Heung-min left.
