Tottenham Hotspur are keen on Julian Nagelsmann and the German boss is already a huge fan of Son Heung-min.
Spurs have parted ways with Antonio Conte and their managerial search is effectively on.
Sure, Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason will be in charge until the summer, but the hunt will have already started.
One name Tottenham seem to be very interested in is Nagelsmann.
The 35-year-old surprisingly lost his job as Bayern Munich boss last week.
Now available this summer, Tottenham are seeking talks with Nagelsmann according to The Telegraph.
The German is unlikely to take a new post until the summer as he reflects on his Bayern exit.
The mere notion of Nagelsmann heading to Spurs is an exciting one though and fans are already buzzing about the prospect.
The focus will immediately be on whether Nagelsmann will be able to keep hold of Harry Kane.
We’re sure Nagelsmann rates Kane highly – who doesn’t at this point?

Yet Naglesmann has previously spoken very highly of another Tottenham player – Kane’s partner in crime, Son Heung-min.
Speaking to Football London before Nagelsmann’s RB Leipzig faced Tottenham in the Champions League back in February 2020, the German hailed Son.
The South Korean was injured at the time and Nagelsmann cursed that a ‘top player’ was missing the game – even it helped his own team.
Nagelsmann added that Son is a ‘great player’, paying tribute to the South Korean’s quality.
Nagelsmann may well have been aware of Son’s quality long before he even joined Spurs.
Son made his name in Germany with both Hamburg and Bayer Leverkusen before heading to Tottenham in 2015.
Nagelsmann will surely seen Son’s potential there, and he has more than fulfilled it by becoming a Tottenham hero.
This may have been a down year for Son, but he should play a vital role for Spurs moving forward if Nagelsmann gets the job.
